Meet the new SL-1300G.
Direct Drive, Grand Class Turntable from Technics and a Winner of What Hi-Fi? Best Turntable Awards 2025
This stunning turntable features a Hi-Fi design with a ΔΣ-Delta Sigma Drive and new motor drive technology that delivers high rotational accuracy and low vibration.
The turntable’s new motor, three-layer platter, and high-rigidity chassis ensure even higher sound quality.
Product Features
ΔΣ-Drive suppresses vibrations from the motor for smoother, more accurate rotation
Anti-vibration structure with a three-layer platter and a two-layer chassis
A low-noise, low-voltage power circuit and a switching power supply
The tonearm achieving high Initial-motion sensitivity
High-rigidity body and high-damping silicon insulators for smooth sound and isolation from various vibrations
Coreless Direct Drive Motor Achieving Stable Rotation
The use of a coreless direct-drive motor with no iron core eliminates uneven rotation of the turntable, known as cogging. Furthermore, the twin-rotor construction reduces the bearing load while maintaining high torque and reduces minute vibrations during rotation. Furthermore, the SL-1300G’s motor was redesigned to eliminate subtle vibrations that could affect sound quality. To improve rigidity, the same reinforcement pattern as the Reference Class SL-1000R/SP-10R was used for the coil mounting base.
Motor-Drive System, ΔΣ-Drive (Delta Sigma Drive)
Unlock a realm of audio precision with the ΔΣ-Drive – a state-of-the-art system that harnesses Technics’ expertise in PWM signal processing. In addition to reducing harmonics, the drive suppresses vibrations from the motor for smoother, more accurate rotation, ensuring a rich reproduction of the music.
The turntable has a three-layered construction with a rigidly combined brass and aluminium die-cast platter. The device features a deadening rubber covering its entire rear surface, which eliminates unnecessary resonance and achieves high rigidity and vibration damping. The new turntable design delivers smooth rotational stability and inertial mass surpassing the SP-10MK2, the direct-drive turntable standard used by broadcast stations worldwide, as well as having more than twice the inertial mass of the SL-1200MK5.
Two-layered Cabinet Construction
The SL-1300G is very rigid because its body has a two-layer design that strongly connects the BMC and the aluminium die-cast chassis. Reinforcing ribs have been added between the motor and tone arm on the top panel. This improves rigidity and vibration damping characteristics.
High-level Balance Adjustment
When the weight distribution of the turntable is uneven, excess vibration or noise occurs during rotation, which causes degradation in sound quality. Therefore, the balance of the turntable is adjusted at the factory using specialised, high-precision balance adjustment equipment for each and every item after the turntable is assembled. Turntables that have undergone adjustment are labelled with a sticker reading “BALANCED” to indicate that the adjustment has been done.
Multi-Stage Silent Power Supply
Low-Noise Switching Circuit
The use of a high-speed switching power supply ensures a stable supply capacity and less ripple and humming. Applying a switching power supply to a turntable eliminates the need for a large transformer and countermeasures for the ensuing mechanical vibrations. A switching frequency of above 100 kHz limits the impact of noise on the music playback bandwidth.
Current Injection Active Noise Cancelling
This technology combines a noise detection device with an error amplifier. It detects residual noise in the power supply and applies an inverse phase current to remove noise components. It removes low-frequency noise more effectively than a regulator to ensure a more ideal power supply.
Tonearm: Achieving High Initial-Motion Sensitivity
The tonearm, a crucial component for precise reading, tracks the record's rotation. Inherited from Technics, it employs a lightweight, rigid aluminium pipe in the traditional static-balance universal shape. Featuring a gimbal suspension and high-precision bearing, it achieves high initial-motion sensitivity through manual assembly by skilled artisans. This meticulous construction ensures accurate tracing of record grooves. Plus, it includes an auxiliary weight, providing flexibility for a variety of pickup cartridges.
