I have the M3D version myself (clickfree pitch) which was the same price as the MK2 (as far as I remember).

i once read that it's pretty easy to make a clickfree pitch on an mk2 by opening it and removing 2 specific parts.. i'd be to afraid to do it tho

the m3d by the way is not available anymore, so if you're spinning at home on it it`s kind of historical

any news on follow-up turntables?? i doubt there will be some..

go for it, i say. it's a reasonable price and pretty safe investment (you can always re-sell the decks, probably at a higher price, too)

In that case: that's a lot of money

So it's an MK2 with pitch lock button and without the center lock in the pitch. Djeezes, just buy the Mk2, get the center lock taken out of the pitch and you're all set for a lot less money I reckon. Never really understood the appeal of the MK3 and those versions. Only the MK5G made me doubt a while until one of those went all crazy on me at a club (pitch seemed to go off on an adventure on that series).

Anyway. Whatever you buy, it'll be cool to have some new decks
