TSTSL0010- Product Info
CARTRIDGE FOR TECHNICS SL-10 SL 10 SL10 TURNTABLE
The SL-10 came equipped with the Technics 310MC moving-coil cartridge and replaceable stylus EPS-310MC. Due to the low output of the moving-coil cartridge, the SL-10 includes a built-in, bypassable MC step-up preamp to allow it to connect to standard phono inputs. The original Technics EPC-310MC moving-coil cartridge was designed with a replaceable stylus: EPS-310MC. Both the cartridge and its stylus have since been discontinued. Alternative cartridges are provided below.
