Technics SL-L3 Fully-automatic Direct-Drive Turntable

Description

The Technics SL-L3 is a fully automatic, direct-drive linear tracking turntable from the early 1980s, designed for user-friendly operation with track programming, auto-speed selection, and a P-mount cartridge system. It is known for its compact footprint and ability to play records with the lid closed. Fitted with a brand new Audio Technica CP81 cartridge ($80), this turntable is so easy to use and sounds fantastic. Key Features and Details: Linear Tracking: The tonearm moves in a straight line across the record, minimizing tracking error. Programmable: Offers track selection, similar to a CD player. Drive System: Direct-drive motor system, eliminating the need for drive belts. Cartridge: Utilizes a P-mount (T4P) cartridge, which simplifies installation but offers limited, though high-quality, options.
