Why Buy a Technics Table?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Technics first introduced the re-release of their famed SL-1200 decks, they drew many former DJs to hi-fi stores. Now older and earning more, these ex-spin doctors were able to finally indulge their youthful dream of owning one, or even a pair of SL-1200's. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut what about you? You're not a nostalgic DJ. Why would you consider a \"DJ\" or at least a \"DJ inspired\" turntable?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e1) Built for the road means built for life\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeing built to travel to raves or endure near non-stop use at a club means that these Technics tables are engineered for a long, resonance-free, vibration-rejecting life on an audio rack. It means that this table looks and feels like high-end hi-fi: reassuringly solid, heavy, and with lots of metal rather than plastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e2) Dropping the bass is not just for clubs\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe damped chassis and gimbal tonearm of the SL-1200 series are designed to keep the seismic thumps of bass bins away from the stylus and record. At your home, this keeps out low-frequency mechanical interference from footfalls, passing traffic, appliances, elevators, and of course, the bass notes from your speakers, both directly through the air, and indirectly through the structure of your house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e3) High torque means low \"talk\"\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe high-torque motor, which allows for quick starts and quick returns to speed after scratching, ensures excellent pitch stability as you play even the heaviest vinyl with a stylus that plumbs the deepest parts of the record. The new coreless drive motors and precision control in the current units have eliminated \"cogging,\" a torque output instability that used to need a belt drive to smooth out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e4) Adjustability is adaptability\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the speed slider on the right of the plinth is for DJs to match pitch or BPM between tracks, you can use it to ensure your table runs at the right speed every time, compensating (if needed) for temperature and tracking weight. Also, the feet are fully adjustable, letting you level your turntable even as you struggle to get your rack level on an uneven floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eManufacturer Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first stage of Technics’ new generation of direct drive turntables with an improved motor-drive circuit centered on the newly developed ΔΣ-Drive (Delta Sigma Drive), the SL-1200GR2 is the new standard turntables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFusing Technics’ traditional analog and digital technologies, the SL-1200GR2 is the new standard in direct drive turntable systems.
