Hot off the press...Technics SL 1300G


I'm an admirer of the current lineup. Appears to be solid for the price point-$3200?

Once a Matt is on that platter, can a reflex clamp be used on that stubby spindle?

What do you DD users do with those less than flat gems found in the bins?

Ozzy appears to be looking for a scrap…asking how they might compare …then taking (exception?) to an answer.

Subtle as an oil spill, Ozzy!😉

Grow up, guys…OP happens to be asking about a Technics DD…let’s not push this into the primordial debate about Belt vs. DD tables…which … by the way…can’t ever be WON ! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

FWIW, it’s illegal to bait game in my state! 🪤

 

(I’ve owned and loved both)

 

 

@lewm sorry …your post implied the core-less motor is gone?  Maybe I’m misreading or misunderstanding your post🤔. ….however, I just read it DOES use a coreless motor…just not the same.

 

what is your source?

The Technics SP10 Mk II is the model that moved me on from the regular use of

ID TT's that I had been loyal to for many many years.

The ID TT is the drive design that ended my interest in BD design TT's.

I can't see any reason to change, as I still occasionally use my ID TT and receive demo's of other ID TT's. I am wed to the DD Drives and my SP10 MkII with a modification for the Speed Stability serves me very very well.

Even crazier is the Mk II TT alone, cost almost the same as the owned Speed Controller used with the ID TT.

WTF are you talking about “taking exception”? All I did was ask the question. And when I received an ambiguous reply, asked for clarity. I’m not a VPI (or any other brand) fan boi. It was a serious question from someone who isn’t riding in their first rodeo and expected a serious answer. 

 

@ozzy62 if that’s the case, then I’ll apologize…. strange way to ask that question and then respond…but hey, im getting old…i don’t even know the proper use of the new pronouns!

 

Truly beg your pardon.
