Technics SL 1210GR Coreless Direct Drive Turntable

The direct-drive turntable invented by Technics is still highly acclaimed by audiophiles and DJs in the form of the SL-1200 Series, and there have been many requests to revive the turntable system. As such, Technics decided to develop a new system for Hi-Fi use. Technics provide an outline of their intent in this development. Unlike belt-drive and other systems, direct-drive systems rotate the motor at low speed and directly drive the platter.

It started with a revolution. In 1970, Technics revolutionized the audio world with the introduction of the first-ever direct drive turntable. Unlike belt-driven systems, direct drive systems excel in maintaining a high Signal-to-Noise (S/N) ratio and long-term reliability. In 2016, Technics unveiled the twin-rotor, surface-facing, coreless direct drive motor, eliminating “cogging” and receiving acclaim in the hi-fi market.
