Technics SL-1300G Direct Drive Turntable
Technics SL-1300G Grand Class Direct Drive Turntable
For over 50 years, Technics has been at the heart of the turntable industry, delivering innovative, cutting-edge designs that made them the number one choice for DJ’s and music professionals the world over. With the SL-1300G, Technics has put this unrivalled experience to great use, creating an exceptional turntable for serious audiophiles. This impressive deck features the latest motor drive technology with exceptional chassis damping to deliver an outstanding sonic performance full of detail, depth and musical precision.
Heavyweight 3-layer Balanced Platter
Constructed from three layers of brass, die-cast aluminium and deadening rubber, the heavy platter delivers smooth rotational stability for perfect pitch and powerful dynamics. The platter is also balanced, which further reduces any chance of vibration. The rubber damping supresses vibration, helping to deliver an even purer and more natural sound.
Coreless Direct Drive Motor
Featuring technology first used on Technics’s reference SL-1000 turntable, the SL-1300G’s coreless motor is redesigned to eliminate subtle vibrations that can affect sound quality. The twin-rotor, coreless direct-drive motor eliminates ‘cogging’ which can lead to an uneven sound on some direct drive turntables.
Heavy Duty Vibration Resistant Chassis
Constructed from a die-cast aluminium top plate and BMC base, the chassis is highly rigid and has excellent damping characteristics. The chassis is further insulated with special silicon rubber feet for exceptional vibration control. These characteristics reduce distortion, giving a quieter background, letting fine musical detail shine through.
Multi-stage Silent Power Supply
The multi-stage power supply in the SL-1300G uses a low-noise switching circuit combined with current injection active noise cancelling. The High-speed switching PSU produces less ripple and hum, which is further enhanced by a noise detection device which actively removes residual noise in the power supply. This ensures an exceptionally low noise floor so that you hear more of the finer musical details that could otherwise be lost.
High Precision S-shaped Tonearm
With high precision bearings and Technics’s gimbal suspension system, the S-shaped tonearm is a classic Technics design. It also offers a wide range of adjustments, making it ideal for a huge range of different cartridges. The detachable headshell makes swapping cartridges a quick and simple process
