Technics doesn\u2019t just<\/span> make a turntable, it makes the<\/em> turntable. For decades, there hasn\u2019t been a DJ worth their salt, or a venue worth its alcohol license, that doesn\u2019t rely on Technics SL-1200 turntables to get the party started and keep the party going, night after night.<\/p>\n

But ever since its rebirth in 2014 following its inexplicable termination by parent company Panasonic in 2010, Technics has been on a mission to demonstrate that there\u2019s more to the brand than now-discontinued DJ decks. It would like to establish itself as a manufacturer of high-end high-fidelity stereo equipment that deserves to be spoken of in the same breath as those long-established audiophile brands.<\/p>\n

The latest product designed to enhance its reputation for elite-level equipment is\u2014you guessed it\u2014a version of its record player, the SL-1300G. Yes, it ticks quite a few of the \u201cTechnics turntable\u201d design boxes established decades ago, but this is not a turntable to be flung in the back of a van and hauled from gig to gig ad infinitum. This is a premium item, made of premium materials, and well worth the premium price tag that\u2019s attached to it. Or, at least, that\u2019s what Technics hopes.<\/p>\n
