Technics SL-1200 / Technics SL-1210 Shaped Our World
May 18th, 2010 by Web Guy
It’s quite sad that traditional vinyl turntables are slowly being replaced by new-age cd players and digital dj gear.
It was the vinyl turntable, and more specificly the Technics SL-1200, that is responsible for the DJ equipment industry as we know it.
The image on the right is a picture of the Technics SL1210 MK2 model that are on display as a pair at the London Science Museum.
Please note: You may not copy or use this image without prior permission from their picture library.
At the London Science Museum they currently have this product on display “within the Science Museum’s Making the Modern World Gallery” as exhibit number 10438138 and is labeled as follows:
Technics SL-1200 direct-drive turntables were first released in 1973, and were aimed at professional DJs on the developing club scene. Pairs of these decks, together with a mixer, became the industry standard tool of hip-hop and club DJs throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Model SL-1210 Mk2.
The Technics SL-1200 turtable has been the choice of DJs and turntablists for almost 4 decades. There has been some rumours of the Technics SL-1200 being discontinued, however there does not seem to have been any official statement from Panasonic so far.
