Technics has exhausted all possibilities to offer all DJs, music fans and enthusiasts a first-class music experience. This commitment is also reflected in the brand new Technics SL-1200MK7. Packed with the latest technology and years of know-how, this turntable will make a significant contribution to the evolution of the club DJ culture.
The motor with direct drive creates the core of the SL-1200 series. Introduced in 1970, D.D. motor technology not only offers unparalleled accuracy, but also reliability for long-term use with excellent durability. This motor has evolved with the SL-1200MK7 and achieves an even higher sound quality than the Coreless Direct Drive motor.
The SL-1200MK7 features a static Balance S-shaped tonearm to continue Technics' tradition. The tonearm moves in a unique arc on the record to reproduce music with the highest accuracy. The interior has a high precision bearing construction. The tonearm offers a high track fidelity without needle jumping, even during hard use such as scratching.
Each of the feet consists of rubber and an inner spring, while the underside is covered with a padding material. They effectively eliminate vibrations even in noisy environments. If the turntable cannot be placed on a flat surface, its height and inclination can be adjusted by turning individual insulator feet.
The Technics SL-1210 MK7 has a newly integrated fully digital pitch control, which allows accurate and stable adjustment in the range of ±8/16%. The Target Light, which celebrated its premiere in the SL-1200MK2, is also back on board. Of course also here with the latest technology. The SL-1200MK7 is equipped with a white LED that offers high brightness and a long service life. The lighting has been improved and the range has been increased to ensure optimum visibility of the needle even in poor club light.
Whether for professional DJs or music fetishists who don't want to compromise. The Technics SL-1210 is also in the MK7 version one of the best, most durable and timeless turntables you can buy.
