Remarks[edit]

  • The covers of the Technics SL-1200MK2/1210MK2, which are still available new for about 50€ to 60€, also fit on the SL-1600MK2/1610MK2, if you still have its original hinges. The cover of the SL-1200MK2/1210MK2 is a little bit flatter than the one of the SL-1600MK2/1610MK2 and has a small dome at the back right, where the tonearm mount is located.
  • The turntable does not have a built-in phono preamplifier and therefore requires an amplifier with a phono input. If the amplifier has only normal line inputs, a small phono preamplifier must be connected between the turntable and the amplifier. These phono preamplifiers are available from about 40 €.

The automatic lift is driven by a separate motor via a small rubber belt. With used devices this rubber is often torn or it has dissolved. Replacement belts are still available today and the replacement of the belt is a fiddly job, but not witchcraft.
