Turntables

Explore our range of DJ turntables and vinyl equipment at Deck Converters, including direct drive turntables, cartridges, styluses, slipmats, headshells and essential accessories. Whether you are learning to mix vinyl, upgrading your home setup, building a professional DJ rig or replacing parts for an existing deck, we can help you find the right equipment.

Turntables remain a popular choice for DJs, collectors and music lovers who want a hands-on connection with their music. From classic vinyl mixing to scratching, sampling and home listening, a quality turntable setup gives you a tactile experience that digital systems cannot fully replace.

At Deck Converters, we stock selected new and pre-owned turntables from leading DJ and audio brands, including models suitable for beginners, home DJs, collectors and professional club use.

DJ Turntables for Vinyl Mixing

For DJ use, direct drive turntables are usually the preferred choice. They offer strong torque, quick start-up time and better control when cueing, beatmatching and scratching. A good DJ turntable should feel stable, responsive and durable enough for regular use.

Our turntable range may include:

• Direct drive DJ turntables
• Vinyl decks for home and professional use
• Pre-owned Technics turntables
• Pioneer DJ / AlphaTheta turntables
• Replacement cartridges and styluses
• Headshells and alignment accessories
• Slipmats and vinyl control accessories
• Dust covers and protective parts
• Turntable cables and adapters
• Spare parts and servicing items

The right accessories can make a big difference to how your turntable performs. A worn stylus, damaged cartridge or poor-quality slipmat can affect sound quality, tracking and cueing.

• Replacement styluses

• Headshells
• Slipmats
• 45 adapters

Turntable Repairs & Servicing

As well as selling turntables, Deck Converters also operates an in-house DJ equipment repair workshop. We service and repair a range of professional turntables, including Technics SL-1200 and SL-1210 models.

Common turntable work may include pitch calibration, tonearm repairs, RCA cable replacement, earth/ground repairs, pop-up light replacement, target light repair, start/stop issues, platter faults and general servicing.

Choosing the Right Turntable

The best turntable depends on how you plan to use it. For DJing and scratching, a direct drive model with strong torque is usually best. For home listening, sound quality, cartridge choice and isolation may be more important. For professional use, build quality, parts availability and serviceability are key considerations.

Contact Deck Converters for advice if you are unsure which turntable is right for your setup.
