<\/div>
Fostering Music Culture with Cutting-Edge Technology<\/div>
\"\"<\/div>

In 1965, Technics launched the bookshelf-type speaker system, Technics 1.This marked the origin and starting point of the Technics brand. Technics 1 was designed based on the optimization of cabinet volume and speaker diameter for superior bass reproduction. At its launch, it received acclaim from numerous critics for its rich sound despite its size, and it became a huge hit. With the philosophy of \u201cunless we improve acoustic characteristics, we can\u2019t reproduce great sound,\u201d we began releasing a series of products backed by extensive research and technology, rather than relying solely on the auditory senses of engineers.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The World\u2019s First Direct Drive Turntable<\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/div>
<\/div>
The Dawn of a New Era in Turntable Technology<\/div>
\"\"<\/div>

The development of direct-drive turntables began with a desire from fans for a belt-drive player that would remain consistent even in freezing temperatures. While improving the belt material, we challenged ourselves to create an entirely new drive system that would solve the issue altogether. This led to the development of a direct-drive system, where the turntable spins directly on the shaft of a low-speed motor. The result was the SP-10, the world\u2019s first direct-drive turntable with unparalleled rotational performance. The SP-10 series earned the trust of broadcasters worldwide, including the BBC. The popularity of Technics\u2019 direct-drive turntables soared, spreading globally. The robustness of the direct-drive turntable also became the catalyst for the creation of DJ play.<\/p>\n

<\/div>
Pivotal Time in the Evolution of Speaker Systems<\/div>
\"\"<\/div>

The Technics 7 (SB-7000), the world\u2019s first linear phase speaker, solved problematic phase characteristics and directional anomalies found in other multi-way speaker systems. Before that time, it was believed that human ears could not detect phase misalignment, misaligned sound waves, coming from speakers. The Technics 7 proved this common belief wrong, and it sold over 100,000 units. Technics\u2019 unique linear phase idea led to the \u201cpoint-sound-source\u201d concept and a flat coaxial speaker design. The SB-RX50 was born in 1986. In the SB-RX50\u2019s flat coaxial two-way drive unit, the sound source of the woofer and tweeter in each speaker is aligned to a single point \u2014 side-to-side, top-to-bottom, and front-to-back \u2014 delivering excellent sound imaging and soundstage focus. This point-sound-source concept continues to this day in Technics speakers.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Prelude to the Birth of the DJ Culture<\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/div>
<\/div>
SL-1100\u200b<\/div>
\"\"<\/div>

The SL-1100 introduced in 1971 was the second direct drive turntable model. In addition to the direct drive system, this model featured a die-cast body with integrated tonearm and platter to achieve the compact size. The integrated structure adopted in the SL-1100 had a major impact on the later disco\/club scene.<\/p>\n

Those years saw the birth of hip-hop music. DJ Kool Herc is known as the founding father of hip-hop music. He threw a birthday party for his sister in the early 1970s, and used two turntables to play music. His performance is said to be the origin of hip-hop music. In those years, many people held \u201cblock parties\u201d in which DJs brought their own equipment to play music. Therefore, the ease of equipment use and its portability were key factors. The SL-1100 integrated construction turntable was the turntable that the founder of the hip-hop culture, DJ Kool Herc, continued to use at block<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

1970<\/div>
The World\u2019s First Turntable with a Direct Drive System\u200b<\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/div>
<\/div>
SP-10<\/div>
\"\"<\/div>

Introduced in 1970, the SP-10 was the world\u2019s first direct drive turntable, which SL-1200 models developed thereafter were based on. In the belt drive system and idler system, noise is generated due to rotation irregularities or belt vibrations that result from aging. The direct drive system, in which a low-speed motor was directly connected to the platter, eliminated this problem because it used no belt or idler. The direct drive system thus established itself as an alternative drive system to the belt drive and idler drive leading to the development of the SL-1200. The stable rotation and quickness to reach the rated speed offered by the direct drive system undeniably had a major influence on the performance techniques of club DJs who began to appear in the late 1970s.<\/p>\n

From 1960 to 1970, funk music became popular and it formed the base of all dance beats that followed. James Brown and many other music artists assembled new \u201cBlack Music\u201d groove, who led to further development of hip-hop music.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
