Technics has revived their iconic SL-1200 turntable series with the SL-1200MK7, a direct-drive model aimed at professional DJs and turntablists. The MK7 features Technics' renowned build quality and high-torque motor in a sleek new all-black design. Its coreless motor provides lightning-fast start-up and braking, enabling advanced scratching techniques. Digital enhancements like precise pitch control, reverse play and adjustable torque/brake settings give DJs more creative freedom than ever before.

High-Torque Motor Powers Advanced DJ Skills

At the heart of the SL-1200MK7 lies a high-torque direct drive motor that propels the platter to full speed in under a second. This rapid acceleration, combined with adjustable brake speed, gives DJs tight control over scratches, stops and spinbacks. The motor's stable rotation results in minimal speed fluctuations for seamless beatmatching and mixing.

Digital Pitch Control Means Rock-Solid Tempo

Gone are the days of unstable vinyl pitch control. The SL-1200MK7's digital pitch fader provides incremental tempo adjustments in 0.01 percent increments for perfectly matched BPMs every time. Its quartz-locked pitch lock indicator ensures your selected tempo stays on track.

Customize the MK7 to Match Your Style

DJs can customize the SL-1200MK7's torque and brake speed to suit their needs. Increase torque for a highly-responsive platter that reacts instantly to nudges and scratches. Decrease brake speed for smooth transitions between tempos. These customizable settings, combined with reverse play, open up creative possibilities that weren't possible with previous SL models.

Built to Last a Lifetime

Like all Technics turntables, the SL-1200MK7 is built to meet the demands of professional use. Its vibration-damping base construction prevents unwanted platter wobble at high volumes. Gold-plated RCA outputs maintain a clear signal path. And with its aluminum top plate and fiberglass-infused chassis, this tank of a turntable will likely outlast its owner. The SL-1200MK7 carries on Technics' reputation for building gear that stands the test of time.
