High-performance Turntable for Serious DJs
With the rise of hybrid analog/digital systems and the demand for increasingly technical DJ chops, today's world of turntablism is more competitive than ever. If you're serious about performing at the top of your game, then you need turntables that can take whatever you throw at them, and for the money, Sweetwater DJs can hardly point to a better turntable than Numark's NTX1000. Sporting a pro-grade high-torque direct-drive motor, the NTX1000 performs on par with its sleek looks. Precision milling and design deliver tight response, and with its ultra-low noise, the NTX1000 brings true audiophile turntable performance to the club.
High torque for a low price
You may be looking at the price tag and wondering what the catch is. There is no catch. The NTX1000 is simply proof that a company like Numark can get a seriously pro-level turntable on the market so affordably it'll make your head spin like your favorite record. Speaking of spin, we're talking about a massive 4kg of start-up torque here, cresting to a constant torque of 2.8kg. Grab hold of its full-size 2.5-pound platter and the NTX1000 responds to your fingertips like a tricked out WRX hugging the curves of Mulholland Drive. The only thing better than having one of these in your rig is having two.
Fine tuning for fine performance
Every DJ likes things to feel just right, and even more than our choice in crossfaders, cartridges, and slipmats, it's the turntables we choose that define how we relate to our vinyl. Three adjustable pitch ranges cover the very basics, providing a choice of +/-8%, 16%, or 50%. The NTX1000 is digitally controlled too, so you can snap back to zero by tapping the reset button. Likewise, the motor and brake feature adjustable times, so you can dial in ramping how you like it. Even the armature has the feel of a precision machine, with an adjustable counterweight and a height adjustment setting that render the already stable S-shaped tonearm, which includes damped cueing and anti-skate control, totally unshakable.
Save the noise for the dance floor
The only noise you should hear in the club is the crowd getting pumped — you sure won't get any from your NTX1000! This turntable's electronics are impressively quiet, and while the performance-driven motor would be wasted on leisurely listening, the sound wouldn't be lost on your average audiophile. Specifically, we're talking about under 50dB of rumble and under .15% wow and flutter. What's more, the NTX1000's isolation base kills feedback and vibration even when your subs shake the foundation of the club.
