Powerful Turntable
This high-torque turntable is one of my favorite for my heavy hands. I love that you can move the pitch and other controls in battle style. I do find that when utilizing Quartz Pitch Lock with Serato DJ (And Scratch Live before) that the pitch doesn't work so well??? The Straight Tonearm is the best!
