DJ K-Note Chooses Stanton
Up until recently, I had not used Stanton DJ Cartridges for about 6 years. The moment I got back onto them, I remembered why I had used them before! The tracking is phenomenal. The 680 V3 is very versatile allowing me to hit the clubs. Whether I am scratching or straight mixing, the sound is clear with amazing frequency response, highs are tight, mids are very clear, and the bass is warm and big. The tracking is second to none.
Stanton, in my books, is the standard that all needles need to live up to. I highly recommend Stanton needles for club/scratch, DJ or studio.
Stanton products have raised the bar giving DJ's the professional quality that they require.
The Stanton 680 V3 allows great frequency response with some of the best tracking I've seen in years.
The SCS 3 System is a new tool that will bring DJing to the next level, allowing you to mix, add effects, triggers sound, with literally no effort. This system packs a punch. If you are looking to lift your game, then this is the system for you.
Stanton has been in the music industry for some time now, when you try their gear you automatically feel the quality that the Stanton brand has to offer.
Stanton is the choice for me!
