We would like to introduce 2 top record players. The technics SL-1500C and Reloop Turn X. Both players offer a quality sound thanks to their Ortofon 2M needle, a very stable rotation and a quick start. Let's compare them...

Technics SL-1500C

Technics has been a well-known name in record players for years and stands for reliability, good sound and precision. This is also the case for the new SL-1500C. It is available in 2 colors and has a stylish design. It has a torque of 0.18N/m so that the platter quickly reaches the right speed. A plus of this compared to the Reloop is the built-in phono preamp so you can use it on a line input. The box contains an Ortofon 2M Red cartridge.

Reloop Turn X

We have had Reloop's hi-fi turntables in our range for quite some time now. We sell well and are therefore happy with the arrival of this new Turn X.
Like the Technics, it also has a very high precision in rotation. Its very high torque of 0.35N/m exceeds the Technics. No phono preamp is provided here, so you can only connect it to a phono connection or use an external preamp. It has the 2M Blue cartridge that can reproduce a more precise sound due to its lighter weight.
