The rumor was that the tooling for the 1200 was worn out and obviously it's an expensive propositon starting (mostly) from scatch, but it seems other companies are willing to put some money into releasing new direct drives. Both Onkyo and Teac are releasing new turntables, and although neither looks as well built as a 1200, it is interesting to see new models coming out in the year 2014. Matsushita might be missing the boat... or a boatload of sales.
