R.I.P. Zwölfzehner
Nun also doch. Letztes Jahr gab es ja schon das Gerücht, dass die Produktion der Technics SL-1210MK2 und SL-1200MK2 eingestellt werden soll. Der Produktionsstopp galt aber nur für Australien. Jetzt kam die offizielle Meldung von Panasonic, die das weltweite Ende der Produktion, des am längsten produziertem Konsumenten-Elektronik-Produkt, bestätigt. Dort heisst es:
"Regarding Analogue turn-table products, we have to inform you of our decision to terminate the business within this year, regrettably. Followings show the reasons which made us to reach to this conclusion.
1) Since beginning of the last decade, our sales of turn-table has been decreasing drastically. It's almost one-fifteenth sales units compared with 10 years ago.
2) Never the less, many key parts are no longer available as some of our suppliers stopped production, and some have already discontinued their business. And there is a risk for some key parts that are available currently might be stopped suddenly, because those parts are continued producing only for our turn-table. In that case we cannot produce products that we have taken order already. We cannot help discontinuing production in advance in order to avoid the worst case."
