Turntable Technics SL-1210MK7 black Review

Direct drive turntables use a slow rotating motor to drive the platter. Such a system has many advantages: for example, high rotational accuracy and torque, which ensures the durability and reliability of the components. On the other hand, it is noted that direct drive systems are subject to torque ripple, an unfavorable phenomenon that causes uneven rotation. The SL-1210MK7 uses a new direct drive without a stator core. The absence of an iron core eliminates the root cause of torque ripple. In addition, the rotor magnets have been reinforced to the maximum and the distance from them to the coreless stator has been optimized. All this made it possible to achieve efficient operation with high torque at the level of the SL-1210MK5 model. Thanks to its smooth rotation and high torque, such a drive allows you to faithfully reproduce the sound read from the track of the old recording.
