SL-Q2
Commentary

A direct drive automatic player with quartz phase locked control.

Equipped with an auto mechanism capable of auto return and auto stop.

The cabinet is made of precision aluminum die-cast, and the bottom base and upper part of the cabinet are made of a two layer structure made of TNRC, an acoustic material with high anti-vibration effect. In addition, a large insulator made of spring and viscoelastic material is directly connected to the cabinet to take thorough measures against howling.

Uses a front operation method that allows all control switches to be operated while the dust cover is closed.

A rotational speed deviation of ± 0.002% is achieved by phase control based on the oscillation of a high-precision crystal oscillator.
In addition, a unique all-around detection F / G is used for rotation speed detection to obtain a more accurate detection signal.

Equipped with a high-sensitivity tone arm with gimbal suspension system that realizes 7 mg of initial motion sensitivity for both horizontal and vertical motion.
Arm part is equipped with anti-skating force control function.

Equipped with an oil dump type queuing mechanism.

Equipped with an LED strobe illuminator synchronized with a crystal oscillator, enabling high-precision rotation adjustment.

The motor is an integrated D. D. motor unique to Technics.
