Alright its not strictly new but it is the new onthedex layout! Due to problems in the supply chain we have stopped selling cds and dvds and have decided to concentrate on our first love, musical instruments and hardware!

We feature music equipment from two of the UK's biggest music stores as well as the addition of ZZounds, an American company and one of the biggest online music stores. Lots of cheap music gear can be had from zzounds.

Hughes + Kettner Switchblade Head Amp

Hughes + Kettner
The World’s first fully programmable Tube Amp with digital Multi-FX

CLICK HERE TO BUY

For another first in guitar amp history, Hughes & Kettner has packed all the features guitarists have long been dreaming of into one amp: A genuine all-tube design and the boundless versatility of amp modeling. A bona fide tube amp. With tube-driven pre and power amps. And 4 channels that put the full arsenal of classic tones at your fingertips, from spine-tingling clean and crunch to singing lead and crushing ultra saturated sound. You don’t need external effects, because reverb, delay and the most popular modulation effects are already on board in top-drawer digital quality. Best of all, you can store all amp and effect settings in up to 128 presets and activate them live on stage at the touch of a button. And that means your sounds perfectly matched to your songs. No more panicky button-pushing between numbers. And today’s sweet-spot settings are saved many tomorrows to come.

Technics SL1200 MK2 DJ Turntable, Sl

Technics
The Legendary Technics SL1200 MK2 Turntable - a must for all DJ's and Club Installations

CLICK HERE TO BUY

Remember what DJs used in the club before the 1200s? Nobody else does either. That's because our heavy-duty design, vibration-resistant construction, and mechanical precision make a lot of what those early DJs did possible. This deck was the first to feature a Direct Drive motor, quartz movement for total accuracy, adjustable tone arm weights, anti-skate control, a pop-up target light and a sliding pitch control. With each new improvement, as form follows function, the Technics turntable has become a thing of beauty. From the community centers at the beginning of the disco era to the clubs of today, Technics decks have been the standard for over thirty years. Features: Vibration Resistant Construction A die-cast aluminum body, heavy rubber base, and a lack of unnecessary components or empty space allow the 1200MK2 to absorb unwanted vibrations that could otherwise interfere with the sound. Ultra-Low-Speed Motor / Super-High Torque The 1200MK2's ultra-low-speed motor and high torque (1.5kg/cm) allow for super quick start-ups (0.7 sec) and stops. Quartz Locked Pitch Adjustment Allows for accurate quartz-locked pitch adjustments throughout its 16 percent (+/-8) range. Total Direct-Drive Accuracy Instead of just spinning the platter, the classic Technics Direct-Drive system actually incorporates it into the motor, reducing the number of parts that can malfunction and making consistent, accurate speeds possible. It's a system that has been providing fast start-up times and unequalled responsiveness for over thirty years. Wow & flutter 0.01% WRMS,, rumble -78dB.
