The truth is there are now decks that can compete with technics, and the pdx 2300 is definately one of them. Best advice I can give you is to try them out and see which one you like best. btw: can someone of the mods move this to the dj gear forum? __ The mysteries of the distorted snare...

I know a cat who has a 10yr old set that still work like they day they were bought. I have fucked around on a set of pdx's and they are dope but it was hard for me to get used to the height level of them. I guess its all about preference tho __ http://www.myspace.com/philthydubbish 04-02-2007 14:23 Zaphear Tourist Registration Date: 30-01-2007 Posts: 18 scraped the pdx thought and bought 2 used mkII's and 2 vestax CDX-05's...im a very happy camper 06-02-2007 22:39 demolitionkid where's demo?
