Description
The Technics SL-1200 MK7 model, of course, retains the basic design principle - direct drive from a motor with a high starting torque. The direct drive ensures stable and accurate maintenance of the record speed, as well as the possibility of its smooth adjustment and manual braking (the latter two functions make the turntable so desirable for professionals). In the Technics SL-1200 MK7 model, the motor has been further developed, which has further improved its parameters and increased reliability and stability.
Product information
The Technics SL-1200 MK7 turntable is identical in terms of its feature set to the 1210 MK7 model, but this new model has a silver front panel, unlike the matte black finish of the 1210. The turntable itself is a new revision of the model, which has become very popular among music lovers and DJs.
The Technics SL-1200 MK7 is equipped with a statically balanced S-shaped tonearm, which is also a classic for the company's turntables. Due to the high precision of manufacturing and sophisticated design, the tonearm provides excellent tracking and high-quality sound even on records with imperfect surfaces.
The Technics SL-1200 MK7 is equipped with a massive non-resonant chassis made of cast aluminum and ABS plate in the lower part, which is mounted on combined damped feet - they have a rubber shell and an internal spring. The feet are height-adjustable, which makes it possible to set the Technics SL-1200 MK7 exactly horizontally even on uneven surfaces. The platter in the turntable is also aluminum and covered with rubber on top, which dampens it and also serves as a record mat. The color of the strobe light and the controls on the turntable can be changed using a micro switch.
The Technics SL-1200 MK7 model has a digital pitch control circuit (smooth change of the disc rotation speed) operating in the range of ± 8 or 16%, which increases the accuracy of the control. The Technics SL-1200 MK7 is equipped with an electronic speed switch for 33, 45 or 78 rpm. There is also a convenient Target Light illumination, which was first used in the SL-1210 MK2 model. The use of a bright white LED for illumination makes the turntable easy to use even in dark rooms.
