How good is a fully upgraded Technics SL-1210mk2 compared to other high end TT?
As the title says;
How good is a fully modified Techy 12xx, with say new PSU, MN Bearing, ETP platter, Isonoe Feet, new arm (Jelco 750D or Origin Live Silver or Funk Firm)…
compared to say:
Linn LP12
JR Transrotor ZET-1
Rega RP8 with Apheta cartridge
VPI Classic
Michell GyroDeck
Michell Orbe SE
Avid Diva
ProJect RPM-10.1
:scratch:
ALL of these TT obove will cost about the same as a fully modified Technics deck.
My upgrades so far has been relatively low cost (KAB Fluid Damper, Mains PSU, Achromat 1200, Isonoe). The three next upgrades will be high cost upgrades:
- Mike New Bearing.
- Mike New ETP platter
- Origin Live Silver/ Jelco 750D tonearm/ FX arm
I was hoping that someone that has heard or own a fully upgraded 12xx, and compared it to or upgraded it to another high end TT could share som input. Hopefully compared it to one of the above.
