Talk:Technics SL-1200

message: Vinal LP's contain more information per second than all other media, period. CD's and Dvd's produce a flat listless sound that is missing much of the range the human ears can detect. By discontinuing the technics 1200, Panasonic is willfully forcing people to listen to lifeless incomplete sound. All of their products here ever after need to be boycotted to let them know the error of their ways. Only blueray is capable of holding the same amount of information, but no one releases songs on blueray using the necessary recording equipment.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.40.5.197 (talk) 21:49, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

replies: text:  Not true. While records may contain some information in the ultrasonic range, they usually have quite a bit of a roll off in the high frequencies, so even a CD is superior here. CDs have a higher signal to noise ratio as well. With dithering, the signal can be detected well under -100db, so it can reproduce low level detail much better. The channel separation on a CD is better as well.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8108:943F:D824:29BA:A187:D8B9:5A6B (talk) 07:16, 25 September 2022 (UTC)

message: I'll take some pictures, because the pics of the 1210 are not as good as having a pic of a real 1200 MK2, IMHO. Headquarters 07:36, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Rumours of End of Production 

message: "S-shaped Tone Arm: Although no longer popular on high end hi-fi turntables, the S-shape arm has two distinct advantages over the straight arm. 1. Less wear on the groove as the cartidge and stylus is better aligned with the groove. 2. Better tracking of the groove, especially during DJ tricks like cueing, spinbacks and scratching."
I can't comment on point 2, not being a turntablist myself myslef, but IMHO point 1 is a misunderstanding. A straight arm have an offset angle on the headshell whatsoever; Actually, if you picture the head shell itself and the arm pivot&horizontal axis on a piece of paper, in a given position, the actual shape of the arm in between them does not matter AT ALL from a cartridge/groove alignment point of view ... (there are undiscustably dyanmic/resonance/inertial/compliance issues...but htos would not be summarrised in such a binary statement). I therefore remove part 1 one the sentence above...If somebody wants to revert it please explain here.  --MarmotteiNoZ 01:09, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Arm Shape rationale 

message: Where has it gone to? Not even a quotation has remained on the current version of this article. It looks very odd now: "...made the following statement" with nothing actually "following" after that. Either it's archived on DMC site, or removed. -andy 77.7.113.154 (talk) 12:05, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

message: This section contained material that was largely opinion and reads like a feature request list for the 1200.  This is not encyclopedic material, so I removed it from the article. Rndmnss (talk) 18:05, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed Modifications and Upgrades section 

message: Some of these details may be true, but none of it is sourced, so it's difficult to verify.  Also:
* Some information is redundant.  I think the right way to do this is to list the new features for each model, rather than repeat features that exist across models.
* The formatting was all messed up.
It would be great if someone could provide a list of new/incremental features for each model/model family.  I checked on panasonic's website and they only have the mk2 and mk5. Rndmnss (talk) 04:14, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed some details in "Models" section 

message: What is the official way to pronounce Technics?  (By "official," I mean the way it was pronounced by members of the company itself.)  I've heard a lot of people pronounce it like the word "techniques" (tek-NEEX), while others pronounce it phonetically (TEK-nix).  Which one is correct?  64.185.131.107 (talk) 17:18, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
