The brand new SL-1500CS merges the legendary SL-1200 DJ turntable series with modern Hi-Fi turntable design \u0026amp; major tech upgrades. The SL-1500CS uses Technics' ΔΣ-Drive coreless motor, the same high-torque direct drive motor previously reserved for their Grand Class line. The 1500 series removes the speed control slide (a DJ feature) and adds a phono preamp + Ortofon 2M Red cartridge (for easy plug+play). For added convenience, the SL-1500CS also features a semi-automatic tonearm, which will lift the cartridge at the end of the record. Finally, the 1500CS' sleek, Metallic Grey finish is a first in the Hi-Fi giant's catalogue.\" - TTL\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e'S' Model Upgrades from SL-1500C\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eiron-coreless ΔΣ-Drive (Delta Sigma Drive) powered motor - previously only available in Technics Grand Class models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ehigher torque motor: 2.2 kg x cm vs. the 1500C's 1.8kg x cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetallic Grey finish exclusive to the SL-1500CS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ealuminum die-cast chassis integrated w\/ a two-layer construction of ABS \u0026amp; glass-fiber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-quote\"\u003e\"The ΔΣ-Drive technology, taking sophisticated signal processing techniques used in our full-digital Technics amplifiers, is all about eliminating motor vibrations down to the very limits of measurable. Therefore, lighter turntable platforms with lighter platter construction benefit greatly from the vibration elimination of the ΔΣ-Drive. Through this, the new SL-1500CS achieves sonic performance levels far beyond the perceived standards of its class.\" - Technics\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e➕UPGRADE AVAILABLE\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ewe'll swap out the stock 2M Red stylus with a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.com\/products\/ortofon-stylus-for-2m-blue\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eOrtofon 2M Blue Stylus\u003c\/a\u003e ($200 retail on its own)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2M Blue stylus features a nude diamond elliptical stylus which offers a noticeable sound quality upgrade.
