Item Information

• Brand: Technics (Panasonic Corporation)
• Model: SL-1500C
• Product Type: Direct Drive Turntable System
• Features: Direct Drive Motor / Auto Lift-Up Function / 33 & 45 rpm / Dust Cover Included
• Condition: Used / Working

This unit has been fully tested and is confirmed to be in proper working condition. The auto lift-up function operates correctly. Please note that depending on the size or shape of the record, the auto lift-up may not engage perfectly — this is a product characteristic and not a defect. If this is a concern, you can simply turn off the auto lift-up switch located on the rear of the unit and enjoy manual operation.

Overall condition is very good with minimal signs of use. There are minor light surface scratches on the main body and dust cover, but these are hardly noticeable and do not affect performance or appearance from a normal viewing distance.

The turntable comes ready to play right out of the box. It is fitted with a Technics cartridge mounted with an Ortofon OM replacement stylus. A high-quality Oyaide phono cable is also included.

⚠️ Important Notice Regarding Voltage: This unit is designed for the Japanese domestic market and operates on 100V / 50Hz-60Hz. If you intend to use this unit outside of Japan, a step-down voltage converter will be required.

※ The cartridge, stylus, and cable are consumable parts and are not covered under any warranty. ※ Only items visible in the photographs are included.

Secure & Professional Packaging for Safe Delivery

This turntable will be very carefully and securely packed to ensure maximum protection during international shipping.

• The platter is securely fixed with tape to prevent movement.
• The rubber mat and weight (and other accessories) are placed on top and completely secured with stretch wrap.
• The tonearm is properly locked and immobilized.
• The most fragile part, the dust cover, is protected by:
  • Wrapping the exterior with cardboard
  • Covering it with protective bubble wrap
• The entire turntable is first wrapped and protected (single box stage).

After that:

• The unit is placed inside a larger outer box
• The surrounding space is filled generously with cushioning materials
• It will be shipped in a double-boxed configuration for maximum shock protection

I understand how delicate audio equipment can be, and I pack every turntable with the same level of care I would expect as a buyer.

Buy with confidence.
