Bad Points: expensive gadget. needs to come with rubber mat or slip mat. non changeable headhell/cart.
General comments: This Vestax HandyTrax Turntable is Not a dj turntable but i've used mine in a mix and it performs suprisingly well,
This turntable is totaly portable and can be used with batterys or ac power lead(included).
it will play on very xtreme angles and considering the speaker is built in gives off quite a good volume. You can connect it to a mixer or hi fi via the headphone or line out.
Even though it only has a 7" platter this deck can even handle fairly rough scratch moves "if your carefull" and has massive torque for a belt drive motor. You can even link 2 together and go busking.
But this is just me playing, the deck is intended to be used for searching out records at car boots, record fairs and shops etc: and this it does with excelence. you can listen with headphones or the speaker and the battery life is amazing, 20ish hours playback before you need more batterys.
and if your looking for an older record it will even play 78's.
With +/- 10% pitch range and a tone controll to boot this is well worth £90 but if you dont go to record fairs it is a bit of a pricy gadget because the sound quality is not all that if run through a hi fi or mixer.
