I am a proud owner of the newSL1200G turntable. It co st 4K, has the brass top on the platter ( platter is twice as heavy as the original SL1200G), magnesium tone arm, etc. the only difference in it and the GAEis The badging and feet.
Prior to this turntable, I had a VPI Prime and VPI Scout before that. The Technics blows away both of them! I couldn’t stand the unipivot arm, constantly had to fiddle with it and could not get rid of acoustic feedback. I have no such problems and the music just flows. I have played more vinyl sinc3 I bought the Technics than I have in the last 15 years. I have zero complaints and am extremely satisfied. For myself and my wife, this was a solid upgrade.
