Aimé Leon Dore turntable
Aimé Leon Dore is teaming with Technics on a limited SL‑1200M7ALD turntable rendered in the brand’s signature mulberry green — a tight crossover between high‑end streetwear and audiophile gear (hypebeast.com) (djmag.com).
Technics and Aimé Leon Dore have produced the SL-1200M7ALD as a limited-edition variant featuring bespoke gold hardware and a co‑branded slipmat. (DJMag djmag.com) The SL-1200M7ALD is built on the SL‑1200MK7 direct‑drive platform rather than a new chassis, carrying the MK7’s core design into the special run. (Technics US us.technics.com) Aimé Leon Dore lists the turntable at US$2,100 and shows it as available exclusively through the brand’s website and retail channels. (Aimé Leon Dore shop aimeleondore.com) The product page gives an estimated ship date of April 1, and several outlets report that initial shipping is listed for the United States only. (Aimé Leon Dore shop aimeleondore.com) (Stereonet stereonet.com) Technically the turntable retains SL‑1200 hallmarks — S‑shaped aluminium tonearm, vibration‑dampening platter and the MK7’s DJ‑oriented stability and direct‑drive motor control. (DJMag djmag.com) (Man of Many manofmany.com) The turntable launch is paired with a small capsule in Aimé Leon Dore’s SS26 rollout, and the retailer notes the SL‑1200M7ALD is a final‑sale item with the cartridge sold separately.
