Technics Tonarm-Gegengewicht (Original, neuwertiger Zustand)
Originales Tonarmgewicht für klassische Technics-Plattenspieler. Perfekter optischer und technischer Zustand – keine Gebrauchsspuren, saubere Skalierung.
Modellreihen: SL-1200 / SL-1210 (MK2, MK3, M3D, MK5, M5G)
Verfügbarkeit: Original ab Werk vergriffen / nicht mehr neu gelistet
Lieferumfang: 1x Gegengewicht (wie abgebildet)
This is a later-era small part rather than a full deck, so timing matters less than fit and originality, and at €79 it looks like a strong buy against the local used market. With a median of €202 and a 25th percentile of €99, this sits clearly below the low end of the typical range, which makes it a bargain if it matches the arm you need.
For Technics owners, an original counterweight is worthwhile because correct mass and threading matter for setup, tracking, and keeping the arm’s balance right. The “neuwertig” condition is the real upside here: if the finish is clean and the fit is precise, this is exactly the kind of unobtrusive part you want to buy once and be done with. Just confirm compatibility with your specific arm series before committing.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Technics: Japanese Precision Engineering Since 1965
Technics emerged in 1965 as a premium audio brand established by Matsushita Electric, now known as Panasonic, with headquarters in Osaka, Japan. The brand name derives from the word "technology" and was originally conceived to showcase Matsushita's high-end audio capabilities. The company's founding philosophy centered on rigorous acoustic research and engineering excellence rather than relying solely on subjective listening impressions. This commitment to scientific methodology became the cornerstone of Technics' identity and product development approach.
The brand built its reputation across a comprehensive range of audio equipment, including turntables, amplifiers, loudspeakers, CD players, tape recorders, and digital pianos. Technics achieved international prominence through its revolutionary direct-drive turntables, beginning with the SP-10 professional model in 1969 and the consumer-focused SL-1100 in 1971. The iconic SL-1200 series, introduced in 1972, fundamentally transformed DJ culture and remains highly coveted by both professional DJs and audiophiles. These turntables set new industry standards for precision engineering and reliability.
Technics occupies a distinctive position as a high-end heritage brand with particular strength in the turntable segment. While the company largely withdrew from consumer markets in the early 2000s, the brand has maintained prestige among serious audio enthusiasts and collectors. Today, Technics represents a bridge between vintage audio collecting and contemporary hi-fi, with its products commanding respect for their build quality, sonic performance, and historical significance in audio culture.
