The Best of Technics' Studio and Club Turntables – Designed for Home Use
Inspired by the iconic Technics SL1210, the SL1500C brings the renowned performance of studio and club turntables to your home. Retaining the sophisticated drive mechanism, this model eliminates unnecessary DJ features for a streamlined, high-performance home turntable. By removing pitch control, cue, and strobe lights, the design is not only cleaner but also enhances sound quality due to reduced complexity. A built-in phono stage, a domestic cartridge, and semi-automatic operation make it perfectly suited for home listening.
Technics' high-torque, direct-drive system—perfect for studio and club use—also benefits home audio setups. The SL1500C uses this advanced technology for superior pitch stability and sonic precision.
Borrowing technology from Technics’ reference SL1200 series, the SL1500C incorporates a new coreless motor, which eliminates the issue of ‘cogging’—a problem that causes inconsistent pitch on other direct-drive turntables. With the SL1500C, you enjoy flawless pitch stability, delivering a true-to-life sound.
Like the SL1210 and SL1200 models, the SL1500C is built with high-quality craftsmanship. The robust, die-cast aluminium chassis is constructed with a hybrid design to resist vibrations. Combined with isolating feet and a damped platter, the turntable reduces resonance, allowing you to hear more of the music's detail with minimal distortion.
The SL1500C features a classic S-shape tonearm for precise tracking and easy handling. It offers extensive adjustability, including VTA (Vertical Tracking Angle), weight, and bias, making it compatible with a wide variety of cartridges. The detachable headshell makes switching cartridges quick and easy.
Equipped with a built-in phono stage, the SL1500C can connect to a wider range of hi-fi systems and powered speakers. Simply plug it into any system with an AUX input and enjoy. If you prefer using your own external phono stage, the standard gold-plated RCA outputs are available for a high-quality connection.
For a more relaxed home listening experience, the SL1500C offers semi-automatic operation. The arm lifts automatically at the end of the record, protecting your stylus and preventing speaker distortion. If you prefer manual control, this feature can be turned off.
The SL1500C includes the Ortofon 2M Red cartridge, valued at around £100, offering smooth and precise sound quality. It’s a perfect match for the turntable and easily upgradeable with higher-end styli (Blue, Bronze, and Black) for enhanced performance when you're ready to upgrade.
