Technics SL1200 MK2

Description:

The SL1200MK2 represents the next generation, incorporating numerous improvements over the original. In addition to being quartz-locked direct drive, it permits continuous speed adjustment under quartz control (within a range of ±8%).

This feature will be appreciated by DJ's who wish to maintain consistent rhythm when changing records. Its starting torque is a high 1.5 kg•cm (1.3 lb•in), with the platter reaching rated speed within 0.7 second from standstill. It also maintains a tighter lock on the selected speed than did the original SL1200. The platter itself is damped on both sides to avoid ringing.

This is the standard by which all other turntables are measured. Complete manual operation, pitch adjustment, quartz locked, direct drive, S- Type tonearm, headshell and dust cover included.
