Numark Turntable

[nabs]

I ordered a Numark TT1650, new and in the box. Brand Spankin New. does it come with a cartridge? headshell? if you know for sure please reply or email me the answer, i dont wanna waste money on carts if i dont need em for now.

edit- ohshit I thought you were gettin the battlepak (same decks but no target light) but yeah they come with headshells and carts

you shoulda read the thread "numark gear".. as I was in the same boat as you........

the decks im getting are one model higher, and i got a waayyyyyyyyy better deal. I can buy the decks and the dxm06 mixer for the same price as the Battle Pck. Im not gonna use it for scratching, just mixin so it should be arite for me, cuz i wont put too much strain on the motor, and i plan on maintaining it too. And my next investment will be a cd deck anyway, i was playing with em at L&M they are soo cool. They play DVD's and CD's at the same time, and you can scratch em at the same time too, its soo cool.

Im perty sure these are gonna last me the one year that i plan to use em. And umm.. i still need to know. do i have to buy seperate Carts?

I already bought slipmats.

Oh I see.. after looking for a few weeks at decks (for scratchin purposes) i've heard so many bad reviews about everything that its a headache.. I've decided to stick with seekin out tt200's cause the motors somewhat more powerful and the wow/flutter isn't too high (not that I plan to mix anyways) and it will last till I save enough for ttx1's or 1200's (even though I hate the idea of gettin them, cmon technics come out with something NEW)


BUT to answer your question, yes they do come with carts but you may want to get some with more freq response if you plan to mix at parties.. if your just learnin then dont bother i guess
