r/turntables

 Hey guys, welcome back to Turntable Guy. On the bench today we've got a bit of a sad looking SLD202. This was the replacement for the SLD2. I believe there was a Q202 as well and there may have been a 303, which is full automatic

 Good, not going to touch that grease either, not a whole lot to do on these ones, if they're working, they're usually working well, you don't really see too many issues with these tables. They're workhorses, just like the D2 was, this is very, very heavy, let's see what's going on with these feet here, they're just the cheap style where they press fit through like this, so maybe they're just starting to get a little bit flimsy with age, it looks like the back ones are a little bit taller than the front ones, we won't put the screws back in for now, I'm just going to flip it over and do bearing service on it. I like to use Singer, I'll show you the oil, you can get it all over the place, I just picked this stuff up from eBay, actually this one came from like I think Thailand, that's why there's this writing on here, I think it came from Thailand anyway, so Singer for mechanics, electronics, heavy instruments, sewing machines, bicycles, hand tools, home appliances, joints and hinges, it's great for techniques, I like it because it's lightweight, the Techniques oil is a 10 weight, which is exactly what this stuff is, just put a couple drops right at the top of the bearing here, and that will work its way down, and that's all the lubrication you need on these, same for your SL 1200, any of the 1300, 1400, 1500, all that series, D series, Q series, you just lubricate your direct drive techniques right there at the bottom of the spindle bearing, okay, right there, boom, done, okay, let's see how our speed is now, queuing's nice, drops nice and slow, which is great, power on, and let's see, oh much better already, oh that's great, see, nice and stable now, just a little bit of contact cleaner, 45, so a 45 could use a little bit of an adjustment right, so you can do that on the motor board, we'll probably do that off camera, it's just a matter of going in and hitting those pots right on the motor board, that way when you're switching between 33 and 45, you don't have to constantly play with your pitch adjustment, so it's set, 33's dead on right there, close the dead on, it's nice and stable though, so when you hit 45, you want 45 to be stable too, in this case it's a little fast, so you're going to have to hit the pitch control just a little bit, but that's what those two fine adjustment trim pots are on the motor board, okay, that's great, very simple to service these ones guys, you really don't have a lot to do, if you've got one of these tables, you're lucky, there's so little to do, and as far as the stylus is concerned, we've got here for cartridge Shure, this is one of those Encore cartridges, so this is called an ME95ED, these were made in Mexico at the Shure factory there, this is crooked, so I'm going to readjust that, our alignment on our techniques is 52mm from the tip of the diamond to the gasket on the head shell, and we are at 52, excellent, this might be the original cartridge, let's clean the stylus, I always use a little bit out of alcohol, 70% isopropyl, because I don't know where the stylus has been, so I do like to clean off the garbage that's on there, this one is particularly dirty, it's either dirty or broken, I'm going to have a peek at it with my magnifying glass here, oh it's broken, yeah we got a bum needle, it's bent downwards, so it needs a new stylus, so much for cleaning it, I do want to hear what it sounds like though, make sure we can do an audio test, I'll just use one of my, I keep a spare head shell here with a cartridge that I know is good, and let's just quickly balance this up here, it's a Shure M91ED on our techniques head shell, old style, ok arms balanced, set her back, set your weight to zero, and this cartridge is I believe 1.5 grams, so right there, an anti-scape, 1

 I like to use Singer, I'll show you the oil, you can get it all over the place, I just picked this stuff up from eBay, actually this one came from like I think Thailand, that's why there's this writing on here, I think it came from Thailand anyway, so Singer for mechanics, electronics, heavy instruments, sewing machines, bicycles, hand tools, home appliances, joints and hinges, it's great

work its way down, and that's all the lubrication you need on these, same for your SL 1200, any of the 1300, 1400, 1500, all that series, D series, Q series, you just lubricate your direct drive techniques right there at the bottom of the spindle bearing, okay, right there, boom, done, okay, let's see how our speed is now, queuing's nice, drops nice and slow, which is great, power on, and let's see, oh much better already, oh that's great, see, nice and stable now, just a little bit of contact cleaner, 45, so a 45 could use a little bit of an adjustment right, so you can do that on the motor board, we'll probably do that off camera, it's just a matter of going in and hitting those pots right on the motor board, that way when you're switching between 33 and 45, you don't have to constantly play with your pitch adjustment, so it's set, 33's dead on right there, close the dead on, it's nice and stable though, so when you hit 45, you want 45 to be stable too, in this case it's a little fast, so you're going to have to hit the pitch control just a little bit, but that's what those two fine adjustment trim pots are on the motor board, okay, that's great, very simple to service these ones guys, you really don't have a lot to do, if you've got one of these tables, you're lucky, there's so little to do, and as far as the stylus is concerned, we've got here for cartridge Shure, this is one of those Encore cartridges, so this is called an ME95ED, these were made in Mexico at the Shure factory there, this is crooked, so I'm going to readjust that, our alignment on our techniques is 52mm from the tip of the diamond to the gasket on the head shell, and we are at 52, excellent, this might be the original cartridge, let's clean the stylus, I always use a little bit out of alcohol, 70% isopropyl, because I don't know where the stylus has been, so I do like to clean off the garbage that's on there, this one is particularly dirty, it's either dirty or broken, I'm going to have a peek at it with my magnifying glass here, oh it's broken, yeah we got a bum needle, it's bent downwards, so it needs a new stylus, so much for cleaning it, I do want to hear what it sounds like though, make sure we can do an audio test, I'll just use one of my, I keep a spare head shell here with a cartridge that I know is good, and let's just quickly balance this up here, it's a Shure M91ED on our techniques head shell, old style, ok arms balanced, set her back, set your weight to zero, and this cartridge is I believe 1.5 grams, so right there, an anti-scape, 1.5 grams, alright so, I don't even want to put a platter on this thing, let me see here, I think I have something plastic, there, we can put that down, that will protect my respectful record, and let's plug it in, see what's going on here, it's pretty dirty I gotta say, and somebody's been messing with the ground, this is a joke, let's just clip that ground on, see if we get any hum from my cartridge, no hum, no sound, we'll just check basic operation here, and there's no platter on this right, so there could be some vibration and noise transmitted to the needle, I just don't want to put even one of my crappy platter mats on there, it's too gross, ok, I can't play that for too long, let's see, I do like to check the auto return, because sometimes it does go back a little too soon, let me just try that again, if you rush it, sometimes it won't go, but if you leave it playing on the record, see, I gotta do that off screen because I can't leave it for more than 8 seconds or I'll get a copyright strike, it's supposed to be on an album like this, but it sounds good, runs good, and like I said, there's very little disservice on these things, so if you have a D202, congratulations, you get a great turntable, and it's a good sounding table too, yeah it's good to have one of these, it's just a piece of plastic being put over, it's just good for testing and stuff, so anyway guys, that's a fast one, I haven't had a lot of turntables come in, we had a death in the family, so I haven't been bringing in a lot of tables recently, but going back to servicing a little bit more here, and I hope to get some more interesting turntables, I do get a lot of Technics, that's because Technics sold a ton of turntables back in the day, so you're gonna get a lot of these coming back for service, right, so I hope that doesn't bore you too much, but there are some slight differences between models, and it's always good to document it as far as the service is concerned, so that's the SLD202, thanks for tuning in as always, and I will catch you in the next video, have a great day.

What was your first turntable?

5 on here and also too your anti-skate is set to 0. That's giving that cartridge a really nice sound and I did put a nice short cartridge on there. It's an M73 PED. It's got a brand new aftermarket stylus and the needles in great shape so you don't have to worry about that and as you can see at the end of the record it did pick up correctly, return to its cradle and drop and the turntable shuts off

 Also too if you do need to adjust your pitch it's right here. I did clean the pots on that and it is steady at 33 and also at 45 rpms and we're just going to show you that the stop or the reject button is working correctly. If I just press that as you can see the tonearm picks up returns fully to its cradle and drops and the turntable shuts off and this is also a semi-automatic turntable and what that means is it will auto return at the end of the record and just while that's coming to the end of the record I'm just going to go over a couple of the adjustments for the new owner. I do have your counterweight set to 0

 I'm just going to take a quick break, grab a record, and give you a quick demo. All righty and we're back and you have your power button right here. Once you hit that you can see that the strobe illuminates and also too you have your manual queuing lift. Once I hit that as you can see the tonearm picks up

Technics SL D202 Direct Drive Semi Auto Turntable

Hello, I found a store that has old/vintage turntables imported from Japan. I saw they have Technics, Yamaha, Pioneer, and other brands. They receive shipments periodically and they mark them as sales after couple of days, meaning, the open the shipment, price tag all items (turntables are usually 95 EUR/95 USD) and after couple of days they go one day 10% discount, next day 20% until reaching 90% (but 90% off days are crazy and pretty much nothing left). Also, turntables, most of the times, do not have cartridges.

My question: what brands/models should I look for that might be worth? (in what price range?). It is certainly a gamble as some items look pretty beat up but, in your opinion, would it be worth the risk?

Vintage turntables from Japan

 Thanks for looking. Here is this Technics SLD202. This is a direct drive semi-automatic turntable and this video is just to give you a quick demo and also to to show you the cosmetic condition of the item. I just installed the brand new dust cover

 Once that I do that you can see that your light for your speed selector illuminates. Right now it's set up for the 33 and also to your strobe illuminates for you. We're just going to hit the manual cueing lift. That brings the tone arm up, move it right over to the record and also to a nice smooth slow drop and also to this turntable has been completely serviced

 You could see just a tiny tiny little bit on that edge and this edge is also very nice. Overall in very nice condition and also too your top portion is also very clean and you do have your original 45 Technics adapter right there in the back that you can see. You just have just a little bit of marking right here, looks like from the old dust cover. I'm just going to take a quick break, grab a record and give you a quick demo

 We're just going to hit the manual cueing lift. That brings the tone arm up, move it right over to the record and also to a nice smooth slow drop and also to this turntable has been completely serviced. It is 100% plug-and-play ready. All your inside mechanics have been re-lubricated and or adjusted so everything is working correct

Technics SL D202 Semi Auto Direct Drive Turntable

Technics Automatic SL-D202 Direct Drive Turntable Awesome

If your used Technics turntable has these problems, you will have to pay for service or else, if you are handy, do it yourself. I restored a 1979/1980 SL-D202 that I myself bought new but didn't use for almost 20 years. It was gummed up and the auto-return didn't work anymore.

My birthday is coming up and I've decided to use the money I get along with some I have saved to upgrade my turntable setup. I currently have the Audio-Technica LP60 running through an old Technics SU-Z25 receiver from the early 80s. My budget is $300, and I was originally set on getting the RT82 brand new until I heard some great things about the old Technics turntables, especially considering my entire setup is Technics of the era.

In your opinion, which decision is better, and which vintage Technics turntables do you recommend in the $200-300 range?

Fluance RT82 or old Technics turntable?

 This one you've got a power button, so you don't need to do that. You have a cueing lever up front to raise and lower the tone arm. You have the pitch adjustment. You have the speed selector 33 or 45, and you have a stop button, which will cut the tone arm and cause it to return to the rest position at any point in the album when you push this

 Okay, this is going to be a demo of a Technics Direct Drive SL-D202 turntable. These are very nice turntables. They're not super high end, but Technics, even their lower ends, have a lot of features trickle down from the higher end ones. This plays very, very nice

 It really is a nice little turntable that's inexpensive. As you watch it return, it's very smooth, all the lube's in good shape. These Technics tone arms are a really nice one to return. The Pioneer series, if you're familiar with those, like the 518, 516, 540, they're kind of spring-loaded, and they're a little bit jerky when they return

 If you want to have multiple cartridges, you can put one back there. So now we'll demonstrate how the stop function works. We just left stop, it'll raise the tone arm, and return it to the tone arm rest position. This also, the tone arm clip, works fine

Would this work well as a setup? What else would I need? Are they compatible?
