The Technics Sl 1200 MK2 are a series of turntables that have actually been around for a while now. The MK2’s are more on the lower end of the totem pole because there are upgraded versions now of these. But they are classic and still built to last. The original model of this line was the SL 1200 then the MK2’s started, the MK2 I think came out ...
Originally written by superwarrior on Audiofanzine FR. How long have you been using it? For over 17 years!!! Did you try any of other models before buying this one? My first turntables were belt-drive products from Stage Line. They were good enough for a beginner but I bought a seco...
