There are hundreds if not thousands of great turntables currently available. Why waste your breath trumpeting about a turntable that you haven't seen or heard, and does not even yet exist in commercial form? Are you a Tecnics fanboy? I owned a Technics turntable in the 70's and it was a good turntable, but so what?
TECHNICS 100th Anniversary 2018 Premium Turntables. Their best ever.
I discovered this morning that Technics announced at CES the about to be released later this year their premium Special edition 100th Anniversary Turntables. Head and shoulder's above the SL-1200G and SL-1200GR. The two new models are the SP-10R, which has an outboard power supply with no tonearm and will retail for $10K. Panasonic claims the SP-10R has the highest S/N ratio in the world against any belt drive or direct drive tables on the market.
The other model is the all in one unit including tonearm, the SL-1000R which will retail for $20K. Only one word comes to mind looking at the pics this morning of the SL-1000R, DROOL! They upgraded and improved the coreless motor thats in the SL-1200G and SL-1200GR models. SME and SOTA, eat your heart's out!
