@howardlee, you are correct, it is the lower cost models that have connections on the back of the plinth now. The SL1200G hasn’t changed their location.
SL-1200 G Power cable
On hooking up my new Technics SL-1200G I started out plugging in a nice new DHLabs 1-meter power cable and then found out it wasn’t getting any juice. I guessed contact wasn’t being made with that awkward plug port so I just plugged in the stock cord and all was well. The smaller plug did the trick and all seems great, but is it worth fooling with this further for just a TT? It’s plugged into a Niagara 1200 so how much do I need to worry about radiation to or from this cable? It’s all about the stupid plug size. Sorry about this stupid question!

I also have the Shunyata extender and used my ZU Even Power cable. The only reason was to keep the Zu Cable "active" until I purchased a new component. The TT speed was fine with no added noise with the stock cable. I just purchased a new DAC and the ZU Cable went there. I'm back to the Technics cord. I left the Shunyata extender in place in case I ever purchase another Power cable upgrade. |
I haven't personally tried different cables on a 1200g, but I remember a Stereophile article where they reference using an AudioQuest Thunder with the 1200g. |
