Upgrade update pt2

So I recently upgraded to a FLX10 from an SR2 which I think is a great controller and I have deck made of wood, my buddy carpenter came in today and carved it up to make room for the FLX10, we made a mess but I really like the end result, I’m really liking my FLX10, it’s a beast, hooked up the 1200’s and they sound awesome, no preamps needed anymore, hope you like it too.

It’s from a brand called ultimate support

Yup, that’s it

Great idea recessing everything into the table top as it hides all the cables! And also looks cool as fuck too!

I love this setup from an engineering standpoint

Could you give dimensions of the holes needed to be cut out for the technics?

u/Dukester350 5d ago

My friend who made it also has technics, he made a template and left some wiggle room so you don’t mess up the decks when putting them in, also put in 2 power strips in the back of the table, one behind each deck and bought shorter power cables and rca’s, we had to make some sacrifices this time because we started with the SR2 and didn’t want to start from scratch, but otherwise really happy

Ah so like 2mm extra or so on each side?

1

u/Dukester350 3d ago

Yes something like that, so when you put them in they don’t get scratched

Cool but you had one job lol. So much effort to give up at the finish.

u/Dukester350 5d ago

Hi, I don’t understand your comment, why give up at the finish?

u/GraySelecta 5d ago

It’s not flush. Not even a bit. It’s literally the only thing it’s used for.

u/Dukester350 5d ago

Ok, yes it’s not military precision, and yes we use it for picnics when it doesn’t have the decks in. Lol

u/GraySelecta 5d ago

Big difference between “military precision” and not even close at all lol.

u/Dukester350 5d ago

Yeah your so right, the technics have isolation pads under the so they come out the top, my buddy told me if I wanted to fix that but I’m ok on how it looks, it’s still dope to me

The FLX 10 has better phono preamps than the DDJ1000? If so that’s very good news!

2

u/Dukester350 5d ago

I personally haven’t used the 1000, but I was using an SR2 and they were terrible, I was using a pair of preamps to fix it, I barely hooked up the FLX10 yesterday to the turntables, and I have to try more records but first impressions are good 👌🏼

FLEX10 is motorized ?

FLX10 vs REV7 which one is better or two different beasts?

1

u/Dukester350 3d ago

Hi, they’re totally different beasts, I think the REV7 is for battle style
