About the SP-10 Mk II
The Artisan Fidelity restoration of the Technics SP10MKII turntable involves comprehensive servicing and upgrades by a certified electronics technician with over 35 years of experience. The restoration includes phase tracking timing bench tests, frequency and reference oscillator motor level calibration, master clock crystal and auxiliary main board inspection, power supply voltage and rails adjustment and scope checks, removal of the factory brake mechanism (reversible), and a full rebuild and bench test of the Technics SH-10E factory power supply. Optional upgrades include brand-specific capacitors and diodes such as Black Gate, Nichicon, Panasonic, Vishay, Shottky, and Stealth. The platter is a 320mm, 2.9kg aluminum die-cast, internally damped with Artisan Fidelity's pure copper/magnesium aluminum alloy, increasing the platter weight to 5.4kg. The restored unit maintains the original speeds of 33, 45, and 78 rpm with a starting torque of 6kg-cm, build-up time of 0.25s to 33rpm, braking time of 0.3s from 33rpm, and wow and flutter of 0.02% WRMS (JIS C5521). Rumble is rated at -86dB (IEC 98A weighted). Dimensions are 102.5 x 368.5 x 368.5mm, and the restored unit weighs approximately 33kg (72lbs) including modifications. Artisan Fidelity also offers single and dual tonearm plinth configurations and ensures safe international shipping with certified crates. This restoration transforms the classic SP10MKII into a high-performance analog playback system with enhanced stability, reduced resonance, and improved sound quality.
