MK3 Technics...

[Si the Sigh]

...Whats the deal? When ever you go on to a website to look at Technics, you will only ever find MK2 & MK5 versions. Why is this? Was the MK3 proper limited or something? I have MK3's, I bought them 2nd hand. I don't know anyone else who has the MK3's. Do any of you have them? And does anyone know why they never get mentioned or sold in shops / websites?

Makes me think they are a bit dodgy or something!! :lol:

The college had two sets of MK3's...

I don't think they were limited mate??

[Si the Sigh]

The only time I see them is as listening posts in shops, as a single deck. When I bought mine 2nd hand the bloke in Cash Generator was about to split them and sell them seperately...

So what gives?

Nah - I know loadsa people with Mk3's.........

they're the one's with the 0% pitch button rather than dip, no hinge for the lids...... and a 'protected off knob'.......

**** all difference from the mk2 really.......

same as the mk4 had the addition of a 78rpm buttom, and **** all else...

and the Mk5's.....um........ a better target light ..oh - and the hinge is back on the lid




not quite sure what technics game is there exactly....... not broke, don't fix it I suppose.

i got the mk3s & i noticed this too

yea the mk3's were a funny product.
my theory is that technics were waiting to launch a new deck so they launched this but improoved it for the mk'5. dont think there limited.
just a way for technics to make money in the gap between mk2 n mk5.

dont think theres much difference in any of the models.

AND I HATE HINGES ON DECKS.
i dont know anyone who uses ****ing lids on decks, so where do they have lids.

cant believe they removed them for mk3's and brought them back.
such a mistake.
