It's back! Familiar in style but completely re-engineered, the Technics SL-1200GR is better than ever.
The legend continues
Developed as a turntable that was sturdy enough to be used professionally but simple and attractive enough to use at home, the Technics SL-1200 was a hit from the beginning. Starting life in the early '70s, the SL1200 lived through many versions and is still seen by many as the reference deck for club use. The latest SL1200GR model is designed to appeal equally to DJs and audiophiles. With a wide breath of abilities this turntable truly does it all.
Coreless direct drive for the smoothest rotation
First developed for the top-spec 'G' model, a coreless motor is used to cut down on vibration. Development of a single-rotor, surface-facing, coreless direct-drive motor, results in the elimination of 'cogging' which can afflict other direct drive decks.
Rotation control developed through Blu-ray technology
Using motor control technology developed through Blu-ray players, the SL-1200GR verifies and corrects the precision of the motor for perfect pitch stability.
Heavyweight platter construction
Everything about the SL-1200GR's construction is designed to reduce vibration and improve sound quality. The new die-cast aluminium platter features rear-bracing and is 800g heavier than its MK5 predecessor. The improved mass and rigidity improves speed stability and reduces distortion for a cleaner, purer sound.
Fully adjustable tonearm
With high precision bearings and Technics's gimbal suspension system, the S-shaped tonearm is a classic Technics design. It also offers a wide range of adjustments, including VTA (Vertical Tracking Angle), weight and bias, making it ideal for a huge range of different cartridges and even different thicknesses of slipmat. The detachable headshell makes swapping cartridges a quick and simple process.
Connect your own cables
Rather than using static cables like SL-1200s of the past, the SL-1200GR features gold-plated RCA phono terminals. These let you choose your own length and quality of cable that's worthy of a deck of this standard.
Increased pitch control
A new 'x2' button lets you double the range of the pitch control from +/- 8% to +/-16%. This extra range makes it even more flexible as a mixing tool and even handier in the studio than ever.
A reference standard for your home or studio, the Technics SL-1200GR is a true legend within its lifetime.

The power of vinyl!
I have had this turntable, the first in some thirty-five years, for a few weeks now and I continue to be amazed by the quality. I had forgotten how good vinyl can sound, and I am just enthralled by the glorious detail, the staging and the 'living' nature of the sound. It is quite magical. I might add that the help and advice I received from Jason in Maidstone was just exceptional. I am so glad I selected this deck, which not only reminds me of DJ-ing with my collection of 12'' singles in the 70s and 80s, but is also allowing me to experience all my old classical and other albums that I've dragged down from the loft and haven't heard in decades. One happy customer!

Superb Turntable
The SL-1200GR is awesome. Had loads of different HiFi components over the last few years but can safely say this is the best sounding source I have ever had. Purchased with a Goldring E3 Cartridge which seems great value at under £80. Build quality is superb, easy to set up, very straight forward operation but most importantly the sound quality is superb. My floorstanding Pro-Ac Response D18 speakers have responded brilliantly to the Technics, never heard so much quality bass through them. When I stream Tidal after listening to the deck, it just seems to lack something now. Totally worth the money and thumbs-up for the cartridge as well. As an aside, had to buy online rather than the shop in Chester I normally use due to current lock-down, but spoke to one of the staff who was working from home and he was helpful in deciding a suitable cartridge.

Sound, build and look of it is just incredible.
Technics SL-1200GR sound is unbelievably musical, pure and dynamic. And you just want to sit down and spin all your collection on this pretty and honestly build jewel of all turntables days and nights.
Besides addictive sound it has been much and rightly improved looking at all previous iterations. From excellent new direct drive motor, better tonearm assembly to detachable RCA / power cables and a quality you expect from Made In Japan it has been released to impress as it does.
I know there is a sea of other products but you get the Technics for what it is. A very pleasant surprise. Highly recommend to all who really cares.
Thanks to Rob at Nottingham Richer for friendly demo and purchase.
My setup: Technics w/stock headshell and mat. AT VM540ML cartridge. Yamaha RX-A1010 receiver bi-amped to Kef R5 speakers via QED XT40 cables. Atlas Element Integra RCA 0.5m. Perfect.
