That's more like it, with part two to follow. Read it at the weekend, interesting but I wish Michael Fremer had got it to review.

I prefer Herb to Mickey. This is a well-written review which conveys a very good idea what the new SL-1200 sounds like. And this made me smile:

My favorite part of the original SL-1200 was its thick rubber platter mat, which delivered the full boogie energy of every song. Fortunately, Technics has not changed that.

Not a question of writing style but experience with hundreds of other turntables, Michael has that, Herb doesn't.

the pics Ive seen, they look very similar. I kinda thought they would have changed a fair amount externally too.. not that I know a lot about them....anyone here got one yet?
