Designed for contemporary living, without compromising on sound quality, the Technics SL-40CBT makes it easier than ever to enjoy legendary Technics performance.
Convenience has rarely sounded so good Featuring the company’s famous direct drive system and pristine sound quality, simply made more convenient, the Technics SL-40CBT is an exciting development. As the company’s first Bluetooth turntable, it connects wirelessly to Bluetooth speakers and hi-fis. A supplied cartridge and built-in phono pre-amp mean that it’s ready to link and go with almost any system. Low profile styling and a variety of sophisticated colourways make it more room-friendly than ever.
Choose your connection – Bluetooth or wired With Bluetooth connectivity, the SL-40CBT connects to more playback devices than any previous Technics turntable. Simply pair with your choice of Bluetooth speaker, soundbar, or hi-fi system and enjoy hassle-free vinyl playback. Technics’s most versatile turntable also has a built-in phono pre-amp, meaning that you can wire it up to any hi-fi system with a regular AUX input.
Direct drive with coreless motor for pristine sound Just like with the legendary SL1200/1210 turntables, Technics have chosen a direct drive motor for the SL-40CBT. The motor design also features coreless tech. This results in the elimination of ‘cogging’ which can afflict other direct drive turntables. Cogging is an instability in the running speed, which gives inconsistent pitch. The result is that the SL-40CBT delivers rock-solid pitch for smooth and lifelike sound.
Classic tonearm The SL-40CBT’s tonearm is a classic S-shape design that tracks precisely and is easy to handle. The aluminium tonearm has a range of adjustments that makes it easy to maximise the cartridge’s performance. Adjust the weight and bias for the perfect match, while the detachable headshell makes swapping cartridges a quick and simple process.
Audio Technica cartridge supplied The fitted Audio Technica AT-VM95C makes an excellent starter cartridge. It features a good quality conical stylus for durability and low wear and tear on your records. With a wide range of upgrade VM95 styli to choose from, it’s also easy to improve the sound – simply by sliding on a new stylus.
Sleek style, available in a choice of finishes More compact in every dimension than other Technics turntables, the SL-40CBT is easy to place, making it a more room-friendly turntable. It’s available in three stylish finishes, including black, grey and terracotta brown. For a complete, stylish system, the colorways pair up with the matching Technics SC-CX700B wireless system speakers.
Enjoy the thrill of Technics sound, from its most convenient turntable yet, with the Technics SL-40CBT.
