"Hey, we're going to be talking today about Technics Mark 2 direct drive turntable. This is the industry standard. More DJ's use this particular model of turntables than any other turntable. Technics is the most popular brand, there definitely are other brands, Stan makes great turntables, you get Gemini's or Numarks, but I prefer to get the Technics because they're proven they work fantastic. The Mark 2 is my favorite model, and is the most popular model. They came out in the 80's and back then, until today, people are still seeking them out. They've got all the standard features and it's important to use a high quality turntable as opposed to using a lower one because the feel is very different, it's going to pick up much better. Using a direct drive is much better than a belt-driven, and I'm going to explain that in the next section. And I really do highly suggest, from my personal experience, using a Mark 2 Technics direct drive turntable."
