Technics SL-1210GAE Anniversary

Hi ; Do any of you knowledgeable  guys can tell me if the new SL 1210GAE anniversary edition  have performance upgrades over previous models, or it is just a marketing strategy ?   How it compares with a similar priced belt drive TT? .

Thank you, your explanation makes sense, there could be NOS carts perfectly fine even after the years or maybe not fine but not mistracking either but why risk it? I get your point

There was a used 1200g for $3400 today which should be close to the GAE, get a Hana ML and you could be close or better

The JT-1210 won't be available to US dealers, only to US dealers (based on the PR), honestly I don't know if the cartridge is worth the $800 usd or so difference and if nagaoka won't release it later under different model number

Hi, @dover would you care to please comment on the following


If anyone values their records, 

I thought that suspension problems on NOS carts would compromise the sound but not the record
Thanks
