Technics is back in the game
« on: 7 Sep 2017, 10:43 pm »
The Technics revival started with the SL-1200 not cheap with the latest one at $2000?  But direct drive today is not cheap compared to belt drive.  Late 2018 comes the SP-10R turntable.

Let's see what it all costs when they bundle it with an arm.  It's pretty to be sure, but I suspect a great deal of the technology is already present in the new 1200G, albeit with plain jane looks.  The most significant difference in my book other than looks would be the separate power supply.  That's always a great idea for low output gear, such as TT and preamps.
