Unboxing Technics SL 1210 GR und Setup mit Nagaoka JT 80 Black
มุมมอง 15K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Ein kleiner Appetithappen: Es folgen demnächst ein paar Reviews rund um das Thema Kopfhörer. Dazu fehlt es noch an einer passenden Location. (Ist aber fast fertig...) Wünsche und Anregungen und gerne auch Kritik bitte in die Kommentare! #technics #technicssl1210 #nagaoka #hifi #vinyl
Any recommendations for a good pre amp and power amp for this set up ?
Its the same as a MK7.You pay only 800 Dollars more.
Collar on the burndy cable should be at the turntable end and when adjusting the counter weight the felt mat should be removed, that makes a considerable difference.
What an ugly looking piece of kit.
Should be wearing gloves while installing and setup, from beginning, and maybe commentary would be nice
Not made in house its made in Germany only the electronics made in house.
Yes made in Germany
The music ruined the whole presentation
Very much enjoyed your video, nice and slow unboxing and setup plus excellent choice of music, thank you.
Nice vid! what music is this?
Annoying
@@frankhugh2052who asked you?
I've always been disappointed with Naim products. They never seem to have nailed perfection, they just lack lustre and end up being in the medium end of Hi-Fi.
Even my wife mentions that this unboxing is not up to the Naim standards! Disappointed indeed.
easy peasy but no need for using a protractor ?
It looks perfect.
Habe einen DENON AVR-S760H AV Receiver und eine Canton Surround - Anlange im Wohnzimmer, überlege mir den Technics SL 1210 GR zu holen mit direkt der 2m Black als Nadel? Oder ist meine Anlage nicht teuer genug, dass es den Sound rüberbringt? (Es gibt ja auch Standboxen für 2.000€ aufwärts, meine haben "nur" um die 250€ pro Stück gekostet. Einen Vorverstärker brauche ich nicht oder? der AVR hat ja einen Phono-Eingang.
Hi, ich würde da eher in die Lautsprecher investieren: Sie machen sehr viel in Kombination mit der Raumakustik. Allerdings ist die Quelle und da auch der Plattenspieler wichtig: Viel Mechanik, der Tonabnehmer... Schwierige Entscheidung, ich hab würde eher auf Lautsprecher gehen.
@@Audionoerd Moin, ich hab' jetzt schon den Technics gekauft und eine Ortofon Bronze Nadel. Das Ding ist, ich habe jetzt bereits mein Wohnzimmer voll mit den Denon Boxen und müsste die quasi alle wieder verkaufen, dabei hab' ich sie erst seit vllt. 3 Monaten. Ich wusste vorher nicht, dass es überhaupt so teure Boxen gibt für z. B. 4.000€ oder so. Was du sagst ist also denke ich alles richtig, nur ist es für die Boxen nun schon zu spät und jetzt hab' ich eben einen sehr guten Plattenspieler geholt (hoffe ich zumindest, kenne mich ja da auch nicht wirklich aus). Irgendwann werde ich dann vllt. auch die Boxen upgraden in ein paar Jahren.
@@Suplexmaschine Hi, dann passt das doch! Der Technics kann Dich Jahrzehnte begleiten! Viel Spaß mit dem schönen Laufwerk.
Some assembly required. At the prices Naim gear sells at, a fellow in a tuxedo should arrive to set up the deck.
The cost of car and a bit more
Your dealer would be more than happy to come out and setup the system for you
How much is this please.
More than your mum
Beautiful turntable , I've seen one just like that with a gold plated tone arm which finishes off the look nicely , but either way it's all good 👍
How much does platter weigh?
A thing of beauty, very nice design and no messing fitting the tone arm, very cleaver, but a shame they run out of design ideas with the finger pick up!
Oh my... SO nice ! I've always wondered if there is really that big a difference in SOUND between the different 1200 offerings available today... like your 1210GR vs 1210G vs 1210GAE vs even the 1500C if same cartridge, same phono-preamp etc.. Prices are all over the map and I don't know enough to understand if there is a significant sound improvement between models ! I do understand the higher end models are better made, heavier, easier to adjust VTA etc but do they really improve the sound enough to justify the price difference? I would definitely appreciate your thoughts on this. THANKS !
The cartridge makes a big difference. The motor on the Technics tables is what makes them stand out. The motor on my Rega is a 75 dollar part. Runs one and a half ram fast.
@@musicman8270 Too funny !! 🤣🤣🤣
to make the sub platter settle down , fit the main platter before the belt , let it all settle , remove the main platter , then fit the belt , that was standard practise with a linn LP12 ...
Shouldn't work here since this is a magnetic bearing with a lot of up force. With a correct set up LP12 this also doesn't work since the outer platter adds mass to the springs, but the belt can be installed without outer platter because the belt nearly fits without outer platter.
@@jensbondarenko9195 Ok that makes sense . so Naim have been listening to a guy who developed a "magnetic arm bearing".
@@patthewoodboy a platter bearing, not an arm bearing... Clearaudio of Germany is the manufacturer.
I thought it might be magnetic repulsion rather than an airlock.
@@jensbondarenko9195 works on the same principle
What about setting the anti skate and VTA? My Solstice needed adjustments to both
Hi Rob, VTA was flawless, I adjusted the antiskating later. How do you like the Naim machine? :)
@@Audionoerd Hi Harold. The turntable and arm are superb. I changed phono stage to Superline powered by a Supercap which was a huge upgrade. I feel that freeing up the Solstice P/S to just power the turntable motor and not that and the Solstice P/S was significant. I’ve also changed the Equinox cartridge to DVXV1T which was almost as big an upgrade as the P/S. The deck in the spec that I have now is outstanding and more than a match for a Linn Klimax. A friend brought his LP12 over and the dem confirmed that so no conjecture in my judgement. Cheers. Rob
@@robburgess1985 Hi Rob, the Dynavector are excellent, I like them through and through and occasionally a 10X5 plays here. The standard pickup is also excellent, but you can easily change it. The LP 12 is of course a major contender, I had some in service with "old" Naim Aro. Exciting would now be a Klimax with new Naim Aro!
and who is the artist that is playing?
...very romantic...
Thanks. I get my Solstice in Jan or Feb of 2022.
Did it arrive allready?
@@Audionoerd No. Still waiting.
@@spotshooter1 That´s sad! 😞 I was in Erlangen a few days ago: Perhaps i saw your Solstice @ Clearaudio! 😄
@@Audionoerd I hope so! What are your thoughts on the Solstice? I currently have a LP12/ARO/SuperLine/Supercap into a 500 system.
@@spotshooter1 Hi, I myself listen with Naim (Just a Uniti.... :( ), but would put me anytime the 500 series! Linn is not mine from the electronics, the LP 12 I find excellent though! Therefore a difficult question: The Naim is objectively better, subjectively I like both drives equally. But you can hardly compare them because of the construction!
Hallo, Where is your GR made ?
Hi, sorry for the delay: All newer GR since mid 2021 are made in Malaysia!
@@Audionoerd so they moved it to Malaysia where the MK7 and 1500c been made? Thats interesting
?ñ
Harald, würdest Du einen Vergleich mit dem Ortofon 2m Bronze wagen? Und noch eine Frage: Wie wirkt sich der geringeren Output von 3 mV gegenüber 5 mV aus? Danke für's Video! Alex
Der Output ist bei einer ordentlichen Phonostufe egal. ;) Klanglich bevorzuge ich die Nagaoka, der einzige Vorteil ist die etwa bessere Auflösung bei den 2M-Systemen. Vergleich das Bronze aber lieber mit einem MP 150 von Nagaoka!
Thank you very much for the video. I am considering buying Nagaoka JT 80BL. I wonder if there is a "white plastic correction" in the package for the cassette. Or where to buy. Best.
Hi, this is a normal Technics overhang gauge. Or in german: Überhanglehre. It's about 10 to 12€ on eBay!
I bought the cheaper model the jt-80lb from Auditorium. A great thank you to Mr.Harald for excellent service & assistance. I use the Technics sl1210gr as well & I have to say that even with the cheaper jt-80 the sound is fabulous.
Sehr geil, ... genau diese Kombination würde ich auch wählen! :-) Bist noch zufrieden? Welchen Vorverstärker nutzt du für dieses System? Grüße
Hi, ich mache das beruflich. 😉 Aber der Kunde hat einen Naim Nait XS 3 im gleichen Atemzug bekommen: Passt sehr gut, auch die schönen Audio Physic aus Brilon. Oder anders: Geile Kombi insgesamt, der Tonabnehmer ist hervorragend.
That's the one I've got almost 2 years ago. But I went for a cheaper, and still excellent Audio Technica AT-VM95SH/H cartridge with Shibata stylus. Couldn't be happier.
The Audio Technica is also good. However, I do not like this analytics, but prefer the more analog sound of the Nagaokas. Like everything but a matter of taste! (And on the Technics both good!)
good stuff did you experience any sibilance or distortion?
Hi,no, the combination plays perfectly for this price and also independently: very neutral turntable, easy to adjust and a MM which plays on the level of a MC. I can only recommend!
@@Audionoerd I eventually went with MK7 and Naga MP110. Set it up with the overhang gauge still getting some sibilance 🤷 very annoying. Also what GRs manual says about VTA for 18mm cart hight ? MK7 says to set it up to number 1 so Im wondering if there is a difference when GR comes with rubber (thicker) mat.
