Technics celebrates their 60th anniversary with this Master Edition turntable available in limited quantities. How is this model improved over the SL-1200G? Reinforced G Class Motor, as found in the SL-1300 for longevity Fourth Generation Delta/Sigma Motor Drive for reduced platter vibration Multi-Stage Silent Power Supply for cleaner power to digital control unit Four Layer main board for optimized power and circuit management Alpha Gel Silicone Insulator in Zinc housing found in the SL-1000R The SL-1200GME features a coreless direct-drive motor that eliminates cogging for smooth rotation. Its twin-rotor construction maintains high torque while reducing bearing load and minute vibrations. The coil mounting base uses the same reinforcement pattern as the Reference Class SL-1000R/SP-10R for enhanced rigidity. Unlock a realm of audio precision with the ΔΣ-Drive – a state-of-the-art system harnessing Technics’ expertise in PWM signal processing. The SL 1200GME/1210GME expands the PWM carrier frequency from around 2 kHz to over 20 kHz, reducing audible noise and further suppressing micro-vibrations.
