Technics SP 10 mc II. Worth looking at?

@pryso the simplest SH-10B2 on this site (there are many more)

FYI, the Fidelis Analog chip set is a replacement in the SP-15 as well as the SP-10 Mk 3.

Good to know, I asked JP about chip for mk2 (just for backup) and the answer was that they are not compatible.

Never owned SP-15, but I like SP-20 which is same size as SP-10mkII but with internal power supply.

Looks nice @best-groove

oh yeah

Possibly Dumb Question: do you have to find an SP10 MkII that works on, say, US power, or do the power units allow for accommodation to various voltages around the world?  I see units sometimes listed as BBC or being sold from England or Japan and sometimes see the power plug, sometimes not.  I'm in the US, so do I have to find a unit that works here?

Most SP10s will accept 120V. Those that do not will require 100V. That problem is solved in the USA by using a 120 to 100V step down transformer. Available cheap on eBay.

There is a metal label on the back of SP-10 mk2 drive, never seen 110-120v versions. In Japan they are ONLY 100v.

I use American and Japanese electronics with external step-down transformers.
