The Technics SL-110 is the holy grail Technics direct drive turntable and this is even the rare timber edition. The SL-110 is the highly improved version of the SL-1200 that is so popular. The SL-110 was sold without arm, leaving it to the owner to chose the best arm in the market.
This SL-110 is equipped with the amazing SME-3009 tonearm that retails alone for $1600. Attached to the arm is a fabulous sounding Standon 681 cartridge.
No compromises were made to have the best possible performance you can get out of the vinyl record medium.
This turntable has received a major service and comes with 6 months warranty.
Description
The SL-110 turntable features an ultra-large diameter platter weighing 2kg and having high inertial moment.
The platter is dynamically balanced and around the rim it has strobo marks to check for speed.
The motor is of the direct drive type and has no wow or flutter caused by a transmission mechanism.
There is no vibration because the motor has no high speed rotation mechanism and rumble is extremely low.
Because the motor in the SL-110 includes an electronic commutator, starting is perfectly accurate.
There is no speed instability or brush deterioration as is often noted in brush commutators, no pulse noise and no sound caused by rubbing brushes.
Speed is stabilised electronically.
Interestingly the motor consumes less than 1/100th that of a conventional AC motor.
