The SL-1500C-K is a direct-drive turntable from Technics. It is the more accessible of the brand's direct-drive models.

Key specs that matter

The SL-1500C-K plays at three speeds, 33, 45 and 78 rpm. Its aluminium platter is turned by a DC motor.

Engineering and use context

With direct drive the platter sits on the motor itself, without a belt or idler between them. The plinth uses a fixed suspension rather than a sprung subchassis.

Alternatives

The SL-1300G sits above this model in the Technics turntable range, with a more elaborate build and finish.
