Soundlab DLP32

Compliments to Soundlabs! - Advantages: Very High Powerful Torgue, Includes 'Soundlabs Slippy Slipmats' , Very Stable and Anti-Skate tone arm - Disadvantages: Alminum platter, makes a tinny sound

Despite what people say, DLP-32's are actually quite good. Especially @ £160 each.

You see the thing that is mostly needed in decks is: a lot of power to the deck plate, and a steady pitch regulation. And these decks to say the ...  Read the complete review

Soundlab. Hmmm. Mostly found in either a) A beginner Bedroom Dj's house, or at a listening post in a lot of HMV's. These decks are really the entry level for the beginner Dj, and as such have been very successful in the time they've been among us. Why? Two reason I think. 1) They're cheap, and 2) People don't know any better. See, as a beginner turntable for learning how to be a DJ, these things can be quite useful. Mostly becasue at only £160 a deck, and coming in some good packages, they are a good choice for people with little money, who want to get decks to see if they will enjoy the Dj'ing side of life or not.
