I was considering buying one of the new Technics SL-1200G turntables, but now I'm thinking it might not be a worthwhile investment. It's interesting to read your reports since you have one of the KAB modified SL-1200 tables for direct comparison. Are you able to use the same phono cartridge in both turntables? I have two Denon DL-S1 cartridges and two Audio Technica ART7 phono cartridges so I could make direct A/B comparisons if I had both turntables. Of course, it just occurred to me that it would be very easy to simply switch headshells. Of course, you couldn't play both turntables simultaneously for A/B comparisons, but that might not matter.
Do you ever make digital copies of vinyl. That's another good way to compare turntables. I have 16/44 digital recordings of all my phono cartridges and turntables since I bought my first digital recorder in 1991. I've got Alesis Masterlink recordings of different cartridges in my Sota Millennia from 2003 to the present. It's fun to listen and compare different cartridges I've owned over the years. Anyway, I'll be interested in hearing more of your thoughts regarding the two turntables.
Thanks,
