Features of the Limited-Edition SL-1200M7G Model:

Coreless Direct Drive Motor Achieving Stable Rotation
Retaining the outstanding performance of the SL-1200MK7, the direct drive system uses a slow-turning motor to directly drive the platter, offering high performance, accuracy, and powerful torque without needing part replacements. While traditional direct drive systems had issues with rotation irregularity (cogging), the SL-1200M7GL/M7G features a new coreless direct drive motor that eliminates this problem. The motor’s improved magnetic force and optimized gap between the stator and rotor ensure smooth rotation and high torque, matching the performance of the SL-1200MK5. This results in accurate and faithful sound reproduction from your records.

Tonearm
The tonearm features a static-balance S-shape design and high-precision bearings for accurate groove tracking and minimal stylus jumping during scratching.

Pitch Fader
Digital pitch control fine-tunes speed within ±8%/±16%, using all-digital slider-to-motor control to avoid DA conversion for stable, accurate tracking.

Input/Output
Detachable power and phono terminals ease maintenance and transport. Gold-plated phono terminals resist corrosion for stable sound and easy cable upgrades.

Platter
An aluminum die-cast platter, rib-reinforced underneath, combines with deadening rubber in a two-layer structure to suppress unwanted resonance.

Spring-and-rubber insulators optimize frequency response for high sound quality and howling resistance, blocking vibration even at high volumes for clear audio.

Cabinet
High-end-inspired chassis reduces vibration for pristine sound. Aluminum diecast, ABS and glass fibre form a robust two-layer structure with enhanced damping.

Insulator
Spring-and-rubber insulators optimize frequency response for high sound quality and howling resistance, blocking vibration even at high volumes for clear audio.

78 rpm Speed
Switch between 33-1/3 rpm, 45 rpm, and even 78 rpm speeds.

Serial Number Plate
Each unit bears a unique serial number on the gold edition badge, and only 12,000 will be produced worldwide.

Gold Tonearm
Equipped with a magnesium tonearm featuring a gold finish.

Slipmat with Gold Logo
