  • great man, you are a great legend....

  • hi i don´t kow how can i do for make the motor have the same strength when is new, because now is easy to stop the plate and i can´t sacratch very well with that strength .if you know how can i do for fix it tell me please I would appreciate

  • My tone arm wiggles. I messed with the bearings, and so now I don't know what to do . It wiggles

  • I've got 5 decks... 3 are broken. I really need to get off my ass and try to fix at least ONE of them.......

  • what's the thing he's holding at 3:50 ?

  • Hello very nice video , I own an audio technica three speed turntable and the cable broke and I replaced it and since then it has a buzzing sound and hum and I am wondering what the problem is . this unit did not come with a ground chord. only the rca cable and power cord. and unit. I have had this unit for two years and I really like the unit but hate the buzz and hum please help thank you

  • Good vid but Im terrified I will break my turntable. I'll just keep getting it serviced. I can't live with myself if I break mt tables! LOL

  • djprolab is angry because hes being put out of business

    have fun working on nothing for a living!

  • Lol, completely. I service these decks too, great vids you have there!

  • What does the main PCB have to do with the tonearm replacement? This should have been called "THE INSIDE OF THE TECHNICS TURNTABLE" - this has nothing to do with the title. This is giving people the wrong information, thinking that they have to remove the main PCB to fix the tonearm. There are NO USER SERVICEABLE parts inside this unit, and you could cause more damage to your turntable, as well as yourself, if you don't know what your doing. Trust me, I work on these things for a living!

  • The video might not be horribly useful for tonearm replacement, but everything in a tech1200 is USER SERVICEABLE. As someone that claims to work on them for a living, you ought to know that by now.

  • AutoBat1 - You are incorrect. This unit has NO USER-SERVICEABLE parts inside. This means that any parts inside the unit cannot be EASILY replaced. Which is why it's complicated to replace anything on this unit. From the simple ARM REST to the Tonearm. They are not easily replaced. And thats what USER-SERVICEABLE means. It does not mean you CANNOT work on it, only that it is not made to be worked on easily by user. Nothing more. Nothing less. So feel free to work on it, but b careful.

  • The hardest part is actually supporting the deck while upside down (and not having the weight rest on the spindle).

  • Thanks! Now, for the love of God, please buy yourself a workbench! I kept waiting for you to loose the screws :-)

  • the inside of a photocopier looks similar to the inside of a turntable.....

  • Hey I did this once before. You should post a video on how to change the rca cables on the 1200.

  • Great stuff. cant wait to get into my decks!

  • Your good with technology like me X)

  • thanks so much for putting this up! this is a pain to figure out with just the service manual.

  • good job i like the techy vids but it shows whats in these...bit annoying when you look at the cost.... enjoyed the vid as always...

    regards jason

  • i dont know your money but if you know us dollars a cirit board will be $45 in the us becuse that older but here in the us we have diatal turn tables and ones that are like that that are magnegit too

  • Outstanding vid! On a side-bar? About how often is a tear down cleaning really needed? 6mnts, 1 year etc..?

  • i would take a look every 12 months as you will get dirt and fluff colecting under the platter. j

  • nice vid J, any chance you could so a quick vid on replacing the technics earth wire, hopefully before next week cos i'm moving to harlech to study music technology

  • hi. if you go back to vid 1 and you will see where the earth wire is solderd in, all you need to do is un-solder the old and replace with a thin wire. j

  • It's so pretty in there.

  • Excellent, Tutor! The best of the best DJ! Nice one!
