TECHNICS / SL-1201GME-K

Technics' legendary SL-1200 series has evolved even further. The newly developed ""ΔΣ-Drive (Delta Sigma Drive)"" uses advanced digital control to suppress minute motor vibrations, achieving a high level of both quiet background sound and sharp sound onset. This is a model we highly recommend for anyone seeking a premium analog playback experience.
