Description :

A well‑preserved example of the Technics SL‑D2, a direct‑drive automatic turntable produced by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd., Japan. Manufactured from the late 1970s into the early 1980s, the SL‑D2 is valued for its stable speed control, quiet motor design, and long‑lasting build quality.

This unit retains its original silver finish, factory controls, and hinged dust cover. The platter, tonearm assembly, and control surfaces present cleanly with components appearing intact. The transparent dust cover shows visible fog consistent with age and use. The underside label confirms model and power specifications.

Fitted with a Shure 5X stylus cartridge, known for warm tonal character and reliable tracking within Shure’s magnetic cartridge line. This pairing provides an immediately usable setup for vinyl listeners seeking classic Technics performance with an era‑appropriate cartridge.

Tested and powers on- no additional testing performd.


Dimensions : 14 in L x 17 in W x 5 in H
