TECHNICS / SL-1200GR2-K

This is the successor model to the ""SL-1200GR"" that inherited the technology of the SL-1200G announced in 2016, while incorporating the newly developed technology at that time. It adopts the next-generation motor drive technology ""ΔΣ (Delta Sigma)-Drive"" that enables motor drive with higher precision. In addition, the power supply circuit, which has a large impact on motor drive, has also been improved.

＜Features＞
1. New motor drive technology ""ΔΣ-Drive"" achieves even higher sound quality
We have developed a new motor drive technology ""ΔΣ-Drive"" by utilizing our unique digital amplifier technology know-how.

It reduces slight rotational irregularities and micro-vibrations during motor rotation, achieving stable rotation.

2. Adopts ""Multi-Stage Silent Power Supply"" that combines a low-noise switching power supply and a noise reduction circuit

Equipped with a switching power supply with low noise and little voltage fluctuation that utilizes the know-how cultivated in the development of full digital amplifiers.

Adopts ""Current Injection Active Noise Cancelling"", a noise reduction circuit equivalent to the reference class SL-1000R.

3. High-quality design and environmentally friendly cushioning material that follows the higher-end model
The design follows the traditional layout of the SL-1200 series and is available in two colors: silver and black.

Inherits the design of the higher-end model to achieve a higher-quality finish.
As part of our efforts to combat environmental issues, we use cardboard as cushioning material to reduce the amount of plastic used in packaging.
