Technics Special Edition Lamborghini Direct Drive Turntable System SL-1200M7B

The design is inspired by Automobili Lamborghini’s iconic Y-shape pattern. Orange, Green and Yellow are the colors of the SL-1200M7B, based on the most iconic liveries of the of the Italian automotive super sports cars brand. Automobili Lamborghini and Technics operate in completely different markets but share the same values with cutting-edge ideas & approaches. A corporate culture rooted in a spirit of uncompromising craftsmanship and the pursuit of emotional sounds inspiring customers w/Lamborghini, the sound of its engines. The SL-1200M7B is the powerful result of the collaboration and innovative ideas of the two brands!

The SL-1200M7B comes with an original vinyl record containing the powerful V12-engine and driving sounds of six different Lamborghini super sports cars, a slipmat and two stickers with Automobili Lamborghini and Technics logos. The picture disc features a design inspired by the tires of one the of Lamborghini’s latest models, the Revuelto. As you listen to the sounds of Lamborghini V12-engines, you can also enjoy the visual effect of the tire spinning on your turntable.

The direct drive system uses a slow-turning motor to directly drive the platter. This system has several advantages. It offers high performance, such as rotation accuracy & powerful torque, does not require replacement of parts & maintains high reliability over a long period of time. The new direct drive system eliminates rotation irregularity called cogging.

The SL-1210MK7 new coreless direct drive motor employs a coreless stator. The removal of the core (iron core) from the stator eliminated the root cause of cogging. Furthermore the magnetic force of the rotor magnets was improved to the highest possible level & the gap between the coreless stator & rotor magnets was optimized, thus achieving high-torque-performance equaling that of the SL-1210MK5. Boasting smooth rotation w/powerful torque reproducing sound accurately & faithfully.

The tonearm, which has continued to support the leading edge of the DJ scene for many years, inherits the highly reliable static-balance universal S-shape tonearm. Using high-precision bearings, it achieves a higher initial-motion sensitivity than the SL-1200MK6. This accurately tracks the groove on the phonorecord to assure excellent tracking performance with minimum stylus jumping even in harsh playing conditions such as scratching.
