Homegrove A lot of comments said why would you buy these, and a mixer, instead of a XZ.
Because it looks like a Fisher Price toy?
Amps It looks fantastic, Amps
XDJ XZ? No it doesn’t.
Homegrove I know, I have a bit of a bee in my bonnet about the all in ones, I’m only teasing. I’ve never used one so I can’t really say what they are like, but I’ll bet they’re boss for home use.
Amps at over 2g’s each, I’d expect them to come with Sky Sports, Netfix and a hotplate for your coffee!
…those Thorens decks are absolute pigs to mix on
Unbroken1 Original Urei mixers on the other hand, are a delight!
All the jizz wouldn’t have helped.
Seeing as you can’t get stanton 500al mk2 cartridges anymore. What’s a good cartridge to get. I’ve never used ortofon Concorde’s but they seem very popular.
Dubman The Ortofons are really durable, I didn’t notice much of a sound difference with them but then again I didn’t have an expensive monitor set up at the time either.
Dubman I got this one on my one remaining deck, sounds really good IMO.

Amps …oh aye, wouldn’t mind one for the collection
Amps ….lad I know is selling this Isonoe modded Urei, serious bit of kit:

Amps My mates had one for years. Looks the nuts. He paid about £850 for it, and it’s now worth about £1100.
Homegrove Bloody hell aren’t they expensive.
Unbroken1 Nice, I’m only interested in an original 70s one though… lol etc.
Amps …well the ‘shell’ of that one is an LE (the Soundcraft reissue from 2000′ish), but it won’t make much difference in this case, I believe he’s done similar work on original 70’s/80’s Ureis. Every single internal component will be an upgrade, Justin at Isonoe knows his stuff. Details here:

Unbroken1 Fair play, they look boss.

Where is the flanger?
Yeah, not cheap.
…needing to get the home studio/edit suite up to scratch for WFH purposes, invested in some smart new stands for the Adam’s

How do you rate the ISO Acoustics Damo? I have a pair supporting my Dynaudio AIR6’s and use them, but largely think their claims are hogwash. They definitely take the piss on how much they cost. I was kind of shocked to find out they’re a Canadian company for some reason.
