Technics SL-1310

Brand: Technics

The Technics SL-1310 is a turntable model produced by the Japanese electronics company Panasonic (formerly known as Matsushita Electric Ind.) under the Technics brand. The SL-1310 was first introduced in 1977 and quickly became a popular choice among audiophiles due to its high-quality sound reproduction capabilities. Some standout features of the SL-1310 include a direct drive motor, a low-torque bearing assembly, and a high-rigidity plinth. It has been lauded by many as one of the finest turntables ever produced, making it a sought-after item in the vinyl enthusiast community. Today, vintage SL-1310s are still highly regarded and sought after, although later iterations of the model were also produced by Technics, as part of the company's SL Series of turntables.
