Technics to discontinue the 1200 and 1210?

[mikejet]

I hope not. Rumors abound thought that they will stop making these turntables but Panasonic will keep the Technics name alive.

As long as I can remember every DJ I know prefers the 1200. It's the staple goto deck that a DJ uses. Even the one's I know that have gone digital do so with scratchLive and still use their 1200's.

Something isn't right if they stop making these.
