new technics turntables???
$699.00????? Give me a break. $700.00 for a turntable? The new sl1210m5g.... This thing better mix the records for me for that much money. What the hell does this thing do that is that much different than the original 1200's or even the TTx's....
First of all... Where did you find that price quote?
My hunch would be that $700 will snag you a pair of TT's... Not just a single one. And $700 USD for a new set of 1200's is a very nice price.
By the way, what fun would it be if the records mixed themselves?
A technics SL1200, costs about 599$
But, the one you've seen is the new technics TT:
the Technics SL-1210 M3d
The sl1210 does cost 700$. But, you better go for the SL1200... Forget about the 1210
Nono The SL1210M5G is the new technics
And it does cost about 700 $ according to this site
Yeah this is the price for the new technics turntable... Price quoted from PSSL...
I don't care what this turntable does, it cannot be worth that much money.From reading the specs there really isn't anything great about this new table is there?? Maybe I'm missing something.
I know how much a regular 1200 costs. I already own them..
I think you're right there, it's really not worth it.

Anti skip is now up to 6....word! Comes with Cartridge and Stylus...what?..right..on Silver Technics Headshell....huh..that's..phat! Even thougt the pitch control sliders are reliable. When the time comes the pitch control can be replaced without opening the turntable by removing two screws on top....cool.! There is also a regular technics SL1200 MK5S(ilver) that does not have extra pitch adjustment, Should be avail in US by end of July at retail of I believe around $549.99 |

they'd have to go reverse, and have a digital out with a good A/D converter before i would buy them at that price.
i think the funniest thing about this table is the increased antiskip. pretty much every DJ i know always leaves it at 0 anyway, so how is more helpful?
wow they have the bunch brighter pop up light...aka LED and that is the only cool thing about that new tt in my opinion....
Conclusion: This turntable costs waaaaay to much for what it really is.
Well you only pay for the looks.
And it's looking very horny
I think I'll safe up some money for my 2nd Technics (only have one) and buy a MK5G.
$700 is kinda cheap....
here in .no you pay like $900-1000 for 1x sl1210mk2 if its brand new from the store

just buy a blue LED and blacker faceplate that you can find. 200-300 more for really just that? That seems hard to take in... if it were 100 bucks more than it would be somewhat more understandable.
If you have an older 1210, and like trendy cool blue leds, try
http://www.stumpymoose.com/blutechnics
You can also mod the pop-up light with 3 blue slab type LEDs and a 200ohm, 2V resistor.
Oh, and you can mod the pitch slider to get more pitch. +/- 15% has been heard of. You could probably get even more if you're willing to replace the "Pitch" pot.

The Mk5G's are pretty sweet. And if you do some research, they are roughly $150 more than the mk3's (depednign on where you buu them) like www.audiolines.com and www.planetdj.com
I have seen low as $599
ye... I've seen some mk5g's get sold on ebay for as little as $550 - Purchase price $599. Pssl.com is making a push on these new tt's they have 2 of the versions in stock with the regualar sl-1210/1200 Mk5 selling at $550. While the 1210 is coming in 6 days.
I'm not sure about them though, they seem to have only a tonearm with supposedly no skipping and a new LED as well as higher anti-skate adjustment, better braking speeds. While the MK5G has a blue LED and pitch option up to 16% with a fancier faceplate (its too damn sexy). In comparison to the regualar mk5's which look very similat to m3d's. However I heard that the innards of the mk5's were completely revamped for the 30th anniversary (modernized) and that there is actually added torque... I don't know... This is what I got from various places from the web... 1200s.com and other sites. I can't tell you for sure, but I doubt nearly anyone can, except those who already received them imported from Japan, or live in Japan. (I'm looking at you Tranz).
Here's a link that gives some hard to understand facts about the TT... seems to be a japanese translation to english.

$700 per table, that's outrageous! What are the new features on the
1210's?
