TECHNICS SL-D 303, *DIRECT DRIVE *SERVICED*_FULL AUTO TURNTABLE. *SEE ALL PHOTOS.We haveowned near all models in the ‘BIG’ Technics ranges (SP10,SL1210 etc), but a few years ago, wereintroduced to Technics ‘intermediate’ range – SL-D202/303, SL-Q2/3, etc. Unsurprisingly from carrying similar technology, brilliant arms, superb motors, excellent construction and quality, these units too, always produce superb sound. We still own two verymodified SL-1210 units. Much of the upgrades are still available, but includedthings like, outboard power supplies, SME arms, RB 300 arms + fluid dampeners and high end cartridges etc…but still used a Technics SL-D303 as ‘our daily driver.Bar normalage/usage fine marks Condition is Superb. The plinth, patter, rubber mat, etc.are all superb. Tone arm and all shiny bits sparkle like new. Sound isbrilliant. Most reckon the machine is best with its original type Technics UCCartridge/Stylus (new stylus) fitted, but is equally good via a myriad of AT,Shure and Stanton Cartridges. See AllPhotos and read Reviews below.  *Please upon receiving, remember to re-adjustarm weight and anti-skating if necessary (very easy but have a radio repairshop do if required).Reviews vinylengineTechman77 – Definitely good and stable turntable. Automatic workssmoothly. If you find this and it’s good condition, don’t hesitate, just buyit. It’s worth it!Alchemist_8 – Great well built turntable. Great sound reproductionand very easy to use. Technics know how to build a weighty turntable!jwspicer1 – The successor to the D3, and a very unusual beast.First, the platter is recessed into the base to create a lower profile than theD3. Closer to the later P-mount straight arm machines to come. Second, theintegral rotor-platter design was kept, but the coils were actually printed ona circuit board, with the rotor magnet suspended above the printed coils. Stilleffective, but a bit less torque than the D3. Third, the Memo-Repeat was gone,replaced with a standard Repeat switch. Fourth, the record size was selected bythe push-pin detection system (shared with other models around the same period,like the Q303). That was actually a good thing if the machine is properlymaintained. Fortunately the quality of the construction and especially the armwere kept up. Nice general-purpose turntable. Not the flashiest, but it won’tembarrass if given a good cartridge. And readily available for reasonableprices unlike other Technics models. Specifications – vinylengineType: Automatic start, return, stop,manual play, repeat playDrive method: Direct driveMotor: Brushless DCDrive control method: F-G servo controlPlatter: Aluminium die-cast 31.2cmSpeeds: 33.3 + 45rpmPitch control: 10% adjustment rangeWow and flutter: 0.025% WRMSRumble: -78dB (IEC 98A weighted)Tonearm: Universal S-shaped tubular typeDimensions: 430 x 106 x 375mmNote: This item carries invisible security markings, inside and out.
