Cartridge for Technics SL-1200G or SL-1200GR
@chakster , there are huge differences between SL-1600 and SL-1600mk2. SERVO vs Quartz locked PLL, damping, adjustability of tonearm height, etc.  Then you need to know that the SL-1200mk2 is a simplified version of the SL-1800mk2 variant, which w...

Atmasphere said:The plinth and platter of the SL1200G are much better damped (the SL1600 has no damping in the platter at all) and the plinth of the SL1200G is also more rigid. This makes for a more neutral 'table, and its also more speed stable. ...

You should plan for DSD with an investment of this sort, you would want the door open to the future of digital streaming.  
What is the average lifespan of a phono cartridge?
@daveyf you do know that the majority ofstylii are inferior conical/spherical contact? Even a lowly bonded elliptical stylus can track virgin vinyl that the dreaded conical/spherical stylus has not spoiled. Then microline styli can go even further... 
Help me make a decision! Turntable overload

A song murdered by someone.
Yeah, William shatner is just as despicable as any sleaze-bag rapper that’s ripped off a realmusician. Tom Waits comes in as a close second, then Michael Bolton. Uggghhh! I wanna barf now!

The 1600mk2 is a great turntable, and if you are considering moving to a SL-1200xxx you will need to get used to picking up the tonearm at the end of play. That was one of the reasons I wanted a SL-1700mk2, because I’m lazy :-)

You have almost the same turntable as I do. I have the SL-1700mk2 which is the same but only semi-automatic operation. I use an Audio-Technica VM540ML and love the clarity and depth of sound quality across the spectrum with great dynamic range. Th...

It is very unfortunate that some members of this forum insist on being disrespectful and unreasonable when presented with facts. It is to everyone’s disadvantage when a few people spoil what is otherwise a good opportunity to learn and support eac...
