Denon VL12 Turntable

Post by BobbyDub » Fri Jan 22, 2016 12:09 pm

so it looks like Denon is in the game for the turntable now, apparently its not a super OEM found in the like's of Stanton St/r8 180 or the reloop's p7000/8000, Denon has made it from scratch... looks kinda good although I'm not keen on the pitch fader looks kind of cheap.

Yeah I think the whole thing looks pretty cheap and I bet the price tag is far from that...!
Why the hell are the connections on the side when (if it's supposed to be a DJ turntable) it will get in the way of the other gear next to it? That also gives it a very cheap Gemini turntable look and it's about 6 inches high and those feet lol!
I bet it's gonna be at least £800-1000

On the side it has torque adj, brightness and colour for the ring around the platter, which to me is a gimmick anything with LED's is pointless but thats my opinion. It looks better that a gemini but yeh those feet looks like they came from a ufo. I would of said around the £600-£700 mark to keep it almost in line with a Pioneer. TBH i have preferred the denon cdj's over pioneer cause i think there build quality is better. And ofcorse they going to be a lot cheaper than the new 1200's.

Why would you ever want to adjust the torque?
