I've got the predecessor to the T80, i.e the Stanton str8-80, and I'm happy with it. I didn't find a better quality/price ratio. Plus they have line-out and no ground wire, so they're very practical.

I've tried the Stanton 202 mixer this month too, the cheapest model, and it's fine too. On top of that, this whole new line looks pretty good IMHO.

The needles are fine too (500 B). I don't know the headphones.

I think at this price ($599 in the states, 749Euros in Europe)you can't go wrong with this choice.

I don't know anything negative about them. If it's anything like its predecessor the str8-80, it's all good. heavy and sturdy, very constant platter rotation speed (I get all my vinyl into mp3s using it, and my CBGs are completely aligned from begining to end of track, showing that the pitch is very constant, normal cauz it's quartz locked).

Note that I owned a pair of Technics 1200s for ten years (loved them, nothings compares in terms of quality, sturdiness, and sobriety. Had to part with them when I left the states to come back to europe), and I did a lot of researching & trying different brands in the 200-300Euros price-range before settling on Stanton. I'm still happy with my choice :)

ooh.. :D
..Stanton T80 has Keycorrection (Master Tempo)... If I buy Stanton T80 and TCV with VDJ... Is it any problems there..?

nope, the key correction is optional (you turn it on/off). of course, you have to turn it off when you use TCV :)

okey, is it on the players or on the program...?

on the turntable: you have a key correction on/off switch. The Program (VDJ) assumes that your turntable is standard, without key correction. Key correction would negatively affect the signal being sent to VDJ by the TCV.

No problem, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
One more thing for TCV use: you do know that you'll need an ASIO dual-in soundcard right? (such as maya44 USB or the new DJ Console mk2). Just checking...
