What Turntable to buy?

[Bodega Brad]

What's the difference in Technics between the different "mk" after the 1200?

Usually, the difference is in color or power(U.S./Euro) or features(pitch controls)

STANTON STR-8 150, best tuntable i have ever used for scratching.

blows tech 12's out of the water

i don't mean to bash tech 12's, i think there dope as fuck. but stanton str-8 150's are just as solid and with way more features like adjustable start and stop, key lock, digital output(no ground wire to fuck with),33-45 and 78 rpm, instant reverse-no shitt'n i said instant! adjustable pitch selection, higher torque motor than tech 12's, and these beasts way like 50 lbs a peice even though they are the same size and footprint of tech 12's.
