yeah, to be honest they are the only pair of turntables ive owned personally, but playing at mates houses on other turntables feels well different, and when ive played at venues and used 1210s ive felt right at home, just like, the platter spins with the same kind of strength if you get what i mean? they dont feel at all different to my own.

shit man, fake turntables, thats pretty funny.

aslong as they play the same tho theres no problem.

You would have thought that if you were making fakes youd at least put in the effort to get your spellings right tho!

Hi, found out for some years ago that my decks have the same spelling error and I got them from one of the most trustwhorty shops in norway for over 10 years ago.
Never had any problems with them, but think it's kind of wierd with the sticker on the back.
It's the same on both
there also something with the serial nr, but i cant remember what it was.I sendt a mail to panasonic norway about that for some seven years ago , and as I remember, they tought my decks where NOT fake.
But I'm not sure?
But finally I'm not alone having Image

sumthing inportant 2 consider when talking about "fakes" is that it aint like back in the day when a fake was a badly built piece of shit from taiwan or somewhere, while the original was made in germany. now pretty much everything is made in the same factories in china anyway, so a "fake" might actually have been made by the same workers, in the same factory, on the same machines, but off the record and then shipped out the back door. apparently this is a really big, big problem for fashion brands, cos the 10 quid prada fakes can be identical 2 the 500 quid originals: the factory just runs off a few hundred thousand more units when the client aint watching.
I WAS JUST GONNA POST THAT! im thinking that may be what you have if they are fake at all, since you say they sound and feel fine and all
more on that fashion thing and then how it relates to your technics - i read this big ass article in my gfs bathroom about the subject of fake fashion bags and alot of countries as they're way of like banning it but allowing it (ie USA) is that the item(s) upon import cant have certain logos and shit on them and sometimes stickers and logos and stuff get put on after the import - possibly resulting in misspellings and backwards logos
