Personally, I prefer the 400's to the 1000's + the ability to play tunes direct from usb/ipos/itunes is cracking. and it's £800 for the pair with the 400's. my flatmate has the Technic SL-dz1200 and, between you and me, they're shit!

Cheers mate. I just had a look at the 400s, they look pretty nice, might have to try and have a go on a pair and see what they're like, then its just finding enough space to put them, desk is already full with the technics and mixer!

The guy selling this did a pair for the 400's for about £50 and they're pretty good. gives me loads more room + it looks cool having them suspended above the technics.

My little brother has this little tracking wheel tascam thing that is kind of like a cheap version of soreto, which works ok. But he only really uses that so he can play his own productions which is fair enough. Personally I don't see the point of digital why pay money for nothing? I've got thousands of mp3's on my computer and I wouldn't pay for any of them, yet I'd be more than happy to spend stupid amounts buying up records, getting stuck with loads 12inches with a good a side and a kind of boring aa side. Who cares? vinyl all the way, if you don't get it you're just wrong.
