The updated turntable still uses a brushless motor, the accuracy of which is now provided by the proprietary digital amplifier JENO Engine (Jitter Elimination and Noise-shaping Optimization), powered by delta sigma modulation. The manufacturer promises a significant increase in the accuracy of disk rotation at all speeds.

    Technics SL-1000RE-S

    The player has an updated motor that rotates the support disc according to the direct drive principle. The engine has a dual electromagnetic system, due to which it was possible to radically increase the smoothness of the ride and almost completely eliminate any vibrations.

  • SP-10RE-S

    Turntables

    Technics SP-10RE-S

    The Technics SP-10RE-S reference-grade vinyl turntable system features a direct drive motor without a core and a heavy plate for stable rotation. It is equipped with a separate control unit to suppress the impact of unwanted noise on the main unit. These meticulous noise reduction measures ensure the highest S/N levels in the world.

  • SL-1210G-K

    Turntables

    Technics SL-1210G-K

    The motor is equipped with a double rotor, which significantly reduces the load on the bearings, reduces vibrations and provides high torque. The electric motor is controlled using a high-precision system that was developed for Blu-ray players, which promotes rapid disc rotation and increases the stability of its rotation. Speeds of 33.3, 45 or 78 rpm are supported, which can be selected using the buttons.

  • SL-1200G-S

    Turntables

    Technics SL-1200G-S

    The player received a reference disc with notches that allow using a strobe light to adjust each of the three supported rotation speeds (33.3, 45 and 78 rpm) as precisely as possible, which are selected by a pair of buttons located on the upper panel of the case.

  • SL-1210GR2

    Turntables

    Technics SL-1210GR2

    In the GR2 model, the motor control signal is generated using a PWM signal generated by ΔΣ (delta sigma) modulation, a high-precision 1-bit digital-to-analog conversion method that is part of signal processing in Technics fully digital amplifiers using the patented JENO Engine technology.
