Technics is a less problematic turntable than many other vintage rurntables, personally i use ONLY vintage turntables and never had a problem with any of them (except for the Victor TT-101). My friends using my ex Technics SP-20s from 1976 and both works fine and never serviced, one of them was NOS, anothe one used. |
Here is more infor about SP-20 and you can compare with SP-15 and SP-25 hopefully *TECHNICS SP20 / PRICE: 60,000 Yen (1976) "And high performance at that take advantage of the development know-how of the SP-10mkII, Quartz phase-locked control DD turntable. Starting torque 1.5kg · cm, a large turntable of its own weight 2.5kg (inertial mass 345kg · cm2), and to rotate at a constant speed in a quarter rotation from the start. Due to the large starting torque and powerful magnetic circuit, there is no change in the rotational speed using 150 pieces of the tone arm of the needle pressure 2g. In addition, it is also possible to use a cleaner during a performance. With pure electronic brake to provide users with a smooth stop of the turntable. It has adopted a strobe LED illumination by fringes of Article a row. Finish and has prevented the surface change and wrinkle finish was special surface treatment of the aluminum die-casting."
