The SL1200M7B Turntable
Technics has recently announced a special-edition turntable in collaboration with Lamborghini, called the SL1200M7B. Priced at €1,499 (approximately $1,610/£1,299/AU$2,449), the SL-1200M7B is expected to ship around July 2024.
Features and Design
The 1200M7B, a direct-drive turntable, comes built-in with features inspired by Technics' popular 1200Mk7/1210MK7 DJ turntables, including pitch control and reverse play functions. It also features a high-rigidity cabinet, high damping insulator, and utilizes a two-layer platter structure to improve stability and reduce vibrations.
The SL1200M7B's coreless direct drive is said to offer “stable rotation free of cogging” and there's a starting torque/brake speed adjustment function as well.
A Lamborghini-Inspired Turntable
In terms of aesthetics, the SL1200M7B will be available in three colors: green, orange, and yellow, which are the most iconic liveries of Lamborghini's cars. It will also feature a Y-shaped design, again inspired by Lamborghini.
Free Gift for Buyers
Buyers of the SL1200M7B will also receive an interesting free gift – a picture disc vinyl, featuring a shot of the Revuelto's tire on the record itself, which comes with recordings of both engine and driving sounds of iconic Lamborghini motors, including the Murciélago LP 640 and 25th Anniversary Countach.
Audio and Car Design Collaborations
This isn't the first audio and car design collaboration we've seen, with Cambridge Audio recently revealing a DeLorean-themed version of its Evo 150 streaming amp (and there have been quite a few more) – the two markets have always gone hand in hand.
