RE: Technics unveils new "standard" edition SL-1200GR turntable
Posted by bjh on January 8, 2017 at 10:17:27:
With the heavier 5.5 lbs platter but less heavy than SL-1200 Mk2 overall I'm guessing the difference has something to do with the rubber base.
I think they are onto something. $2000 for a modern and improved DD seems like peanuts compared to what it takes hi-end players to do same. Even the SL-1200GAE/G seems a relative bargain.
