Little poll, for anyone who has had the chance to compare the two. How does the 1200GAE compare to the 1300G, purely in terms of SQ? 1. The 1200GAE is significantly better 2. The GAE is touch better than the 1300G 3. Hardly any difference I have recently bought the SL-1300G as an upgrade...

Hi, I bought a second hand Technics SL-Q2 turntable with a Ortofon VMS 20E MkII cartridge a couple of years back, previous owner had it from new, I use it with my equally old Pioneer A656 Mk 2 amplifier. All been good although I'm far from an expert. As I've started collecting lots more brand...

Hey guys, So I have an old CD Player that my dad used to have, he bought it sometimes early 90s from Technics SL-PG100: https://www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/technics/sl-pg100.shtml. I also have in the same family the receiver...

Hi! I'm about to build a first pair of kit speakers from here: https://www.lautsprechershop.de/hifi/cobrahorn.htm What interested me was efficiency, and a low price to get started with building speakers myself. They will be used in my art studio, which is about 6x6x6 meters. I mainly play jazz...

At this point my OCD perfection side kicked in and started to wonder just what these were worth and if I should even sell them. I have...

Hi, My 35 year old Technics integrated amp SU-V1X (40 watts/channel into 8Ω) is probably past it's best, although still pretty good. I read reviews and have tried some amps that are available here where I live. First I tried Rega Elicit-R (105 watts/channel into 8Ω) but the treble really hurt...

Hi, We bought a secondhand turntable as described above. I’m wondering if the combination is bad for my records? Quite tinny treble that even hurts my ears quite often. Afraid I don’t know much about turntables, but remember that most of my records used to sound nicer than this.

I'm wanting to plunge into the world of vinyl, and was looking to pickup a Technics 1210 turntable, and a Nagaoka MP200 cartridge. Should I get the OEM pre-mounted headshell with it, or save $100 and use the Technics headshell? What's the advantage of the OEM Nagaoka pre-mounted headshell over...
