Hi i own a gemini xl500 turntable, I think this turntable is exellent it is equally as good as the technics sl 1210 decks. There is only 1 small problem with the gemini and that is there is no quartz motor on it so the speed can drift, but i found once the deck as been up and running for a few minutes the speed is ok. The main features i like and find useful are the speed change, start stop button and breaking system. In addition to this i think the pitch control and pop up light are exellent. This turntable is well worth the money is very easy to set up. I paid £150 for my turntable from superfi and its retail price was £300 pound so i got myself a bargain. In my final comments i would recomend this turntable to anyone either for home use or dj use all in all its a cracking piece of kit
