AVForums | Technics SL-1200GR2 Turntable Review - An Audiophile Deck? @avforums | Uploaded 6 months ago | Updated 3 days ago
The legendary Technics SL-1200 turntable is back and better than ever! In this review, we take a closer look at the brand-new SL-1200GR2 and see how it measures up to its predecessors.
If you're a DJ, audiophile, or just a fan of vinyl, this review is a must-watch. We'll cover all the features of this high-end direct drive turntable and give you our honest opinion on its performance. Spoiler alert: is it a potential game-changer for the hi-fi market!
AVForums Hi-Fi editor Ed Selley takes a look to see what improvements have been made over the original GR model from 2016.
One of the big new features of the Technics SL-1200GR2 is the use of -Drive (Delta Sigma Drive) to control the speed of the direct drive motor to give the Turntable accurate pitch and speed, but also kill any unwanted vibrations or noise that could be transmitted to the cartridge pick up, giving you a cleaner sound.
With its universal design and high-fidelity sound, the Technics SL-1200GR2 is a must-have for any vinyl enthusiast. Whether you're a professional DJ or just enjoy listening to music, this turntable will take your vinyl experience to the next level. Watch this video to see why the legend has returned and is better than ever!
