One of the many “space-age” super-materials to come out of the NASA program, it works perfectly in the metal cups of the TH-600, the wood cups of your TH-900, and even the plastic chambers of the Denon D2000. To treat the crucial driver housing we discovered another new material that is more effective and easier to work with. Denon D2000 MarkL mod question. Posted by 3 years ago. I used my own damping and mods. Two concentric rings. One around the outer baffle, one on the smaller inside. That and Dynamat on the cups and your set. I tried without damping and it.

[Estimated Restock Date September 15]
Even totally stock these kick ass. Yeah, they are killer—like the looks or not.
Q. Will the stock deck work with heavy pickups like the Zu? Yes, just install the included sub-counterweight.
Q. Is the stock phono cable alright? Sure, but we have developed a new cable to further the fidelity of this deck, a VL-12 variant of our Mission Phono interconnect.

Phono cable (we already kill it there, but a less expensive one would be nice, a cable that makes sense, price-wise, to those that relate to a blue-collar lifestyle.

But like we said, even stock, for less than $2k this is the deck, get over that it looks like (is) a real DJ deck. In fact, you should dig that it was designed for the rigors of pro use, the disco looks are all bonus.
