Technics Sp10Mk2 conventional direct drive transcription turntable. Quiet, deep black backgrounds, resolving and neutral characteristics. Pictured in Mercedes Benz Obsidian. Design features mass loaded multi layer Panzerholz plinth and integral shielded bearing drain with our latest active "Quiet Core" technology. Constrained layer damped plinth features four levels of overlaying substratum consisting of German engineered Panzerholz, select low density woods in conjunction with anti magnetic metals permanently bonded and sealed together using synthetic material specific permanent bonding agents. Essentially, this aids in forming a non-resonant yet stable platform which has the ability to sustain decades of consistent use. 

Active isolation technology is employed through the use of Stillpoints patented vibration devices which enables even greater levels of focus, air and space around instruments and vocals within the soundstage.  Inspection, micro polish and low viscosity oil re-lubrication service provided on each main bearing assembly. The Technics SH-10E power supply is housed in the factory chassis and features a comprehensive rebuild with full one year warranty provided against defects.  Technics factory aluminum chassis refinishing, single and dual tonearm configurations optional.  Thomas Schick tonearms shown for display purposes only.
