Do you actually want to use it for timecode control or literally just as a decoration?

If you want timecode, do you already have an Audio 4 or 8? cos getting all the stuff to implement timecode control might be more expensive than it's worth to stop your mates asking why you don't use vinyl!

TBH - fuck 'em. Why waste money on something you're not going to use just to keep some pillocks happy.

and once you buy the turntable, the people will all demand you to SCRATCH!!!!

If it's just for decoration.......why not make a statement.

Personally I think buying a turntable for decoration is doing nothing more than validating everyone who is already bugging you about it, your just "posing" as a DJ. Fuck all that, if you dont use TT's, then dont, get over it, and let the others follow. I mean, I guess if you really wanna look like a bad ass you could get a couple of TT's and play a ScratchPickles mix from an iPod and just pretend your scratching to it?? Make sure you plug the turntables in or you'll get busted fer sure.

This - that really would just validate the hate, just ignore it and keep doing your thing - or switch to DVS properly.

They associate turntables with DJs ok, no biggie there. Now it's time for them to associate computers as well or GTFO (not hating on TTs btw).

IMO to buy a TT for decoration or posing purposes is punishable with 10hs a day of listening to justin beiber's "greatest hits" for 6 months.
