General description
The Technics SL-1210GR2 is a direct-drive turntable that takes analog music reproduction to the next level. Thanks to the coreless direct-drive motor, stable rotation is achieved, resulting in accurate and smooth sound reproduction.

With the innovative ΔΣ-Drive technology, motor vibrations are effectively suppressed, contributing to a clear and detailed soundstage. The two-layer enclosure, consisting of a combination of aluminum and BMC, ensures high rigidity and excellent vibration damping, improving dynamics and stereo imaging.

The tone arm of the Technics SL-1210GR2 is designed for high initial motion sensitivity, allowing the needle to accurately follow the grooves of the record and bring out subtle details in the music. The high-quality connections and advanced power supply circuitry contribute to noise-free signal transmission, resulting in a pure and authentic sound.

Want to experience the performance of the Technics SL-1210GR2 for yourself? Schedule a listening session in our listening room or contact us to discuss trade-in options.

Background information
The Technics SL-1210GR2 turntable is a masterpiece of precision and craftsmanship. Designed with input from top engineers such as Tetsuya Itani, it combines advanced materials such as a two-piece platter made of aluminum and a coreless direct-drive motor, which ensures ultra-stable rotation. The internal wiring is of high quality, ensuring clean signal transmission. The cabinet is specially designed to minimize vibration, with sturdy construction and advanced damping materials. Each element has been carefully selected and manufactured to take analog audio to the next level.
Brand history
Technics was introduced in 1965 as a brand name for premium speakers by Matsushita Electric (now Panasonic Corporation). In 1969, the company released the SP-10, the world’s first direct-drive turntable for the professional market. This was followed in 1972 by the SL-1200, a model that became popular with DJs and became a standard in the music industry. Production of Technics products ceased in 2010, but in 2014 Panasonic reintroduced the brand with a focus on high-end audio equipment. In 2016, the SL-1200 was relaunched to mark the brand’s 50th anniversary.

CD

De Compact Disc (CD) kwam zoals de meeste uitvindingen niet uit de lucht vallen. Na de uitvinding van de laser in 1958 werd in 1961 het eerste octrooi voor optisch leesbare schijven ingediend. In 1972 werden de eerste digitale videoplaten geïntroduceerd. Na een flop van Philips kwam de fabrikant in 1979 samen met Sony met de eerste cd, wat erop stond weten wij niet maar in 1982 kwam de eerste cd voor de markt uit, het was het album Visitors van ABBA. In dit jaar kwam de eerste speler beschikbaar en zo begon de verdrijving van de lp uit de markt. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen. Heb je cd’s, geniet er vooral nog eens van, ze hebben immers geen oneindige levensduur.

The Compact Disc (CD), like most inventions, did not appear out of thin air. After the invention of the laser in 1958, the first patent for optically readable disks was filed in 1961. The first digital video records were introduced in 1972. After a flop by Philips, the manufacturer, together with Sony, released the first CD in 1979. We do not know what it contained, but in 1982 the first CD was released for the market, it was the album Visitors by ABBA. In this year the first player became available and so began the elimination of the LP from the market. Many have literally thrown their LPs in the trash… we still see some visitors being disappointed when they tell us this.
