Product Description
The Technics SL-1300G is a turntable with a Hi-Fi design featuring ΔΣ-Drive, a new motor drive technology that delivers high rotational accuracy and low vibration. The turntable’s new motor, three-layer platter, and high-rigidity chassis ensure even higher sound quality.
- Coreless direct drive motor achieving stable rotation
- ΔΣ-Drive suppresses vibrations from the motor for smoother, more accurate rotation
- Anti-vibration structure with a three-layer platter and a two-layer chassis
- Low-noise, low-voltage power circuit and a switching power supply
- Tonearm achieving high Initial-motion sensitivity
- High-rigidity body and high-damping silicon insulators for smooth sound and isolation from various vibrations
Technics’ New $3300 SL-1300G Turntable Combines SL-1200GR2’s ΔΣ Drive With $4300 1200G’s Platter And Motor!
produces a “happy in between place” in the Technics turntable lineup
The Technics turntable line-up can be confusing. Lots of models, lots of numbers and superficially they can look identical but they are not! A few days ago at IFA in Berlin, the company launched a variety of products including this new SL-1300G turntable. While it may appear to be a helping of “number salad”, it’s actually very significant product launch.
Simply put, the new $3300 1300G combines the highly evolved ΔΣ Drive motor drive system introduced last year in the $2200 SL-1200GR2 reviewed here last year, with the considerably upgraded platter and iron-coreless type double rotor/single stator motor of the $4300 SL-1200G. However, this motor has been further upgraded from the SL-1200G’s with a newly reinforced coil mounting circuit board, said to further reduce mechanical vibrations.
