Technics announces the new SL-1210G Direct Drive Turntable. Fully inheriting all technical specifications of the SL-1200G, the SL-1210G model enriches the Technics turntable portfolio with another future classic. We learned from the huge success of the limited edition SL-1210GAE, which was launched in June 2020 and almost immediately sold out. We realised there is high demand for a ‘regular’ black version of this 1200 Series top model. Apart from the technologically superior construction, this fine classic boasts a fit and build satisfying the very highest demands. In its striking black finish, the new SL-1210G possesses an aura of genuine elegance.
The overall quality and performance level of the SL-1210G defines the highest turntable standards and justifies combining with the finest pickup cartridges available for a truly emotional, highly inspiring vinyl playback.
Coreless Direct Drive Motor
Conventional analogue turntables have problems with degradation in sound quality caused by factors such as minute speed vibration during rotation and rotation irregularity called "cogging." In the SL-1200GEG, the use of a newly developed coreless direct-drive motor with no iron core eliminates cogging. Also, the twin-rotor construction reduces the bearing load while maintaining high torque, and also reduces minute vibration during rotation. These factors enable reproduction of the warm, exquisitely detailed sound etched on analogue records.
High-Precision Motor Control Technology
The application of motor control technology developed for Blu-ray devices, and switching the drive mode depending on the operational status of the motor achieve a high starting torque and high speed stability.
Four-layered Cabinet Construction
A hairline-processed, 10-mm-thick top panel of immaculate aluminium has been added to the previous three-layered construction of aluminium diecast, BMC, and heavyweight-class rubber on the SL-1200MK5. This four-layered construction combines high rigidity with a high quality finish and feel.
High Sensitive Tonearm
The tonearm employs lightweight magnesium which has a high damping effect, with cold drawing improving the characteristics of the material and achieving the high-precision required. In addition, high initial-motion sensitivity is attained by employing the traditional Technics gimbal suspension construction with horizontal rotation axis and the vertical rotation axis intersecting at a single central point, as well as high-precision bearings using a cut-processed housing.
High-Quality Terminals
The use of brass-milled and gold-plated phono terminals and ground terminals prevents degradation in sound quality while enabling the easy attaching and detaching of cables. Also theuse of metal shielding construction inside the case reduces the effects of external noise.
High-level Balance Adjustment
When the weight distribution of the turntable is uneven, excess vibration or noise occurs during rotation, which causes degradation in sound quality. Therefore, the balance of the turntable is adjusted at the factory by using specialised high-precision balance adjustment equipment for each and every item after the turntable is assembled. Turntables that have undergone adjustment are labelled with a sticker reading ""BALANCED"" to indicate that adjustment has been done.
Three-layered Turntable Platter
The turntable has a three-layered construction with a rigidly combined brass and aluminium diecast platter. With a deadening rubber covering its entire rear surface to eliminate unnecessary resonance, thereby achieving high rigidity and vibration damping. This delivers smooth rotational stability and inertial mass surpassing the SP-10MK2, the direct-drive turntable standard used by broadcast stations worldwide, as well as having more than twice the inertial mass of the SL-1200MK5.

Absolutely Loving My Denon DJ Prime 4+
The team at Mix Foundation were awesome to deal with. From the moment I walked in, they were friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited about helping me find the right gear.
The Prime 4+ is a fully standalone 4-deck DJ controller powered by Engine DJ, it gives you complete creative freedom without needing a laptop. Just fit a SATA drive and have all your music available directly on the device.
The vibrant 10.1-inch multi-touch screen is incredibly responsive, making track browsing, waveform editing, and FX control feel intuitive and fluid. One of its standout features is Wi-Fi streaming support, giving you instant access to services like Apple Music, Amazon Music, Beatport, TIDAL, and SoundCloud Go+ right from the controller.
Another feature I love is the onboard FX, which are high quality and versatile, with sweeping filters, echo, delay, and reverb, all easily customisable. The stem separation is simply mind-blowing, letting you isolate vocals, drums, or instruments with a tap. The Prime 4+ a powerhouse for DJs of all levels! I had my partner rocking on the device within 15 minutes and she pulled off a stunning mix using just stems.
Overall I am very happy with the decision to purchase the Denon product. It just made more sense, from a price vs features point of view and I'm having lots of fun...reliving my youth and getting back into mixing...love it!

Crisp and Clean
Definitely the most expensive unit in my set-up. But it has elevated everything running through it. I do not DJ, and the only reason I went for DJ mixers in the first place was 1: I needed a phono preamp and 2: I needed an equaliser. High-end audio gear do not have good equalisers. You are lucky to get treble and bass control. I NEED MID. This beast has a 4 band equaliser! More control over my mids then I ever had. But the sound quality? Crisp and clean. Listening to my records in a new light. These phono pre amps do not disappoint. I get 4 separate inputs for my two turn tables, one for my digital, and even one just for my cassette. But the Sound card. Wow. Running digital straight to the mixer sounds amazing. And I can even record off it. And I have been able to rig up to a new MilkDrop 3, so now all my analog music gets this amazing backdrop of colours to go with it. Brings me back to the good old days with Winamp. Messing around with the crunch setting has also been a lot of fun, feels like a guitar amp with the overdrive, and you can even run an effects pedal loop! Also, having a separate EQ for the booth out makes getting that sound perfect, even easier. Three thumbs up!

No compromise detail
Early days but it's living up to expectation of extracting all the information out of the grove with its line contact Shibata stylus. It's the modern equivalent of the Shure V15 III with the MicroRidge stylus.
Wide soundstage, detailed delivery, strong bass, amazing mid range.
Certainly, unforgiving and won't take prisoners of lesser vinyl records.
Good modern premium Moving Magnet cartridge.

These are great headphones! Slightly smaller so they dont cover the whole ear however they are very comfortable. I like the plastic ear coating instead of material which perishes in no time. The sound, fabulous - I use these for my DJ work and they are great.

Superb service from Mix Foundation
Super helpful staff (the man Mike Haru!) and a smooth easy transaction.
I had originally bought a stylus but found I didn't need it after all, and Mix Foundation were happy for me to replace it with an Ortofon Cartridge and stylus.
Good to be buying from staff who've been the in the game for decades and know what they're selling.
I highly recommend Mix Foundation for anything DJ related.
