Ditto, here , too, on the Technics' looks...and I really do like the black ones...

...I had a silver plinth topped 1200---the term 'dated' never came to mind as much as 'industrial'--- that Technics'1200 trademark look(not meaning 'ugly industrial' but industrial that it's not only built ruggedly or heavily but that it also still shows up pretty well for the year 2010!)---'retro-modern'?(yeah, I made that up).

When I see the 1200's in which owner's have installed ALL solid blue LED lights, that makes the silver one look smokin' hot(and the black)...and the sparkly,shiny flecked black 1210 M5G Grandmaster always catches my eye when I see the floor model at my local music-guitar-dj shop...Oh, and the strobe dots(other than showing the whole quartz accuracy thing going on) are an added neat wow factor for me...Just my opine.

Whether, I would go so far as to put one of those aluminum colored covers on the top part of the plinth (that someone showed a link here to several days ago) is another matter---not sure if those colored plinth covers are just flashy, gimmicky and overkill or in certain 'designer colors' would enhance or add anything attractive to the whole setup---------Also,I have not seen a Limited Edtion Gold 1200 in person to see if it truly looks 'golden' or gawdy---Though some owners have told me here on the VA that in person it is a positively striking turntable...

Best regards,

Matt
