Stanton ST150 M2

I’ve been eye balling the new Stanton ST 150 M2s
Thoughts on those?
Here’s what I like

  1. recessed platter
  2. ramped strobe
  3. new brushed look on the top
  4. seem’s to be priced well
  5. offers the straight arm

Here’s what I don’t like

  1. start/stop also controls reverse…ouch, that could be a problem
  2. power switch on rear of deck, no more power down’s when doing a set
  3. pitch is 8/25/50
  4. only has motor stop control.

So, what is the reason I should or should not jump into a set of these?

I have a pair of Stanton st8-105s. Best tt I have used. Hands down. Been 15 years and are reliable as they were back then.

Never got into the technics hype.

Do you like the looks of the new M2? I was seriously considering those in the straight arm version.

4

I got mine before the logo changed. My decks have Stanton in a curly old english type logo. They are dark grey and have bright blue lights. They are beautiful.

I don’t care much for the rebranding, but they should work well.

Unless you scratch - avoid straight arms.

So much truth here.
