@stereo5 + 1 - I've had a 1200G for about 4 or 5 years now, and it's wonderful (though I wish the black one had been available then); currently have a Hana Umami Red cart in it....
Why Are Used Technics 1200/1210 MK2 Still So Expensive Compared to GR/GR2?
I’m in the market for a new Technics turntable, and I’m also looking at lightly used Technics models. One thing I’ve noticed: the older 1200/1210 MK2 units still sell for surprisingly high prices on the second-hand market, sometimes even comparable to or higher than the newer GR/GR2 models.
Why is that? Is it just nostalgia and reputation, or is there something about the MK2 that keeps its value so strong compared to the newer versions?

@stereo5 - Those V15 carts have sure been around for a long time - I think I had a type 2 somewhere in the 70's. Now the only type 2 I have is diabetes! Lake George is so beautiful - I was last there around 60 years ago but still remember it well. Very best wishes to your wife - I hope she recovers quickly and completely. |
