Technics SL-1200GR2 Direct Drive Turntable
Technics SL-1200GR2 Direct Drive Turntable
Technics are relentless in their pursuit of superior sound quality, and their latest innovation, the Delta Sigma Drive, is a game-changer. The innovative technology not only eliminates minute motor vibrations but also elevates the electromagnetic conversion precision of your cartridge.
Coreless Direct Drive Motor
In 1970, Technics revolutionised the turntable industry with the world’s first direct drive system. Unlike traditional belt drive setups, the direct drive system minimises motor-induced vibrations, ensuring an exceptional signal-to-noise ratio and long-term reliability without the need for frequent part replacements. This technology has advanced through the decades and the SL-1210GR2 now features an iron coreless single-rotor/single-stator motor, eliminating cogging and maximising rotational smoothness. Experience superior performance and extended durability with Technics’ cutting-edge technology.
Multi-Stage Silent Power Supply
The SL-1200GR2 uses an all-new power supply and noise-cancelling circuit to ensure the ideal and pristine environment for your audio, free from low-frequency background noise.
High-Grade Construction
Everything about the SL-1200GR2’s construction is designed to reduce vibration and improve sound quality. The die-cast aluminium platter’s advanced design ensures superior sound quality by combining a two-layer construction with strategic deadening rubber to eliminate unwanted resonance and minimise vibration. The two-layered cabinet construction ensures high rigidity, further reducing vibrations and improving overall performance to ensure an outstanding listening experience.
The turntable uses gold-plated phono terminals for detachable cables, while metal shielding construction inside the case reduces the effects of external noise.
Fully Adjustable Tonearm
The tonearm on the SL-1200GR2 employs a lightweight, rigid aluminium pipe in the traditional static-balance universal S-shape and features gimbal suspension with a high-precision bearing. This meticulous construction ensures accurate tracking of record grooves. It also offers a wide range of adjustments, including VTA (Vertical Tracking Angle), weight and bias, making it ideal for a wide range of different cartridges. The detachable headshell makes swapping cartridges a quick and simple process.
