Technics means history, means the beautiful combination between clarity and power. The best EVER!!

Glad to see Technic's back in the HiFi game

I hope they are going to be making products for people other then the ultra rich. My Technics receiver was priced in the $400-$500 range. It’s a 2003 and still working flawlessly. I’d love to upgrade it to get the latest Dolby programming and I’d obviously want to get another Technics unit so they better build stuff for Best Buy customers.

I like the design of this amplifier. It's beautiful. The meters especially are cool.

LOVE analog power meters on an amplifier!

I hope that Technics begins producing their outstanding tuners again, adding a little flair with HD radio, and Bluetooth.

Would love to see how the USB connected peripheral is treated by the amp. Thanks for an introductory video!

As a Technics fan since the early seventies, this makes my heartbeat speeding. In fact I should not watch this for too long.

​@@votive3946 i am completely sorry i got it all wrong about this amp i really thought it was the Technics SE-R1 at 12990 euro and no you cant get a Accuphase for the price of the Technics C700 the cheaper Accuphase is the E-270 that go for about 5000 Euro. Again votive i am sorry i did not get it about this Technics AMP at about 1300 Euro . I saw this Technics SE-R1 at 12990 Euro damn i would never give that price for that i would go for a Accuphase E-380, but i love to much my old Sansui AU 20000 with my klipsch RF-7 MK3 and i still have my Technics SL1210 MK2 that a got in 1990

That's a really nice looking amplifier

wunderschön . Das beherrscht Technics seit mind.50 Jahren . Perfekte Vollverstärker wie auch Vor und Endstufen . Grandios und bezahlbar .

Beautifull machine .................Technics funboy here i'm glad they are back :-)

Looks beautiful excited for the review

Technics SU-C700 still in production for African and Australian market.

How can you adjust bass/treble?

Hi!! What about the turntable sl 1200mkII? you need to produce more!! thanks for your time!!

Does it turn on automatically when the power plug is insert into the power outlet socket? Or do you have to turn it on with the remote to get it out of standby mode when the power plug is insert into the power outlet socket?

Nice overview!

Damn, i need to get a towel... I was drooling to much over the amp... I looked like a danish dog after a good run... :D

What's the price point on this?

Beautiful machine

why's not made in Japan ?

It looks great, it has the Technics logo on it and it is in vintage stamped metal. No audio miracles, but that should not be a deal breaker for some New Wave and Heavy Metal records. So I was going to get one... But then I heared the price tag. Are they nuts? :') It's a pitty everything competitor Pioneer sells this day is ugly and plastic, but at least they are priced to the sound they deliver.

The design is flawless. The sound should be listened to. Pepper price. And I prefer 43 cm !!!

I would happily swap my collection of vintage technics for a new system.

LOL this is for people who like music, a 7.2 receiver might be great for both but it's not necessarily a great value compared to a 2 channel system with digital inputs when it comes to sound detail. and no audiophile listens to compressed streamed music

Cudowne dziecko made in ,Japan

An integrated amp that costs more than 1k?.... I would expect some type of seperated circuits nevermind some real fets....

I love technics but This amplifier is an insult to tehcnics . Classe D for an amplifier audiophile is totally bad. Which audiophile will invest in this new amplifier ? Why do not reissue turntable techncis SL-1200 mk2 or (and) the legend SU - A1 amplifier and SU - A2 preamplifier

It's a class D amp. They are much more efficient than traditional class AB amps, which require massive radiators. Thus, this amp only has a few smaller radiators, meaning that it weighs significantly less.

@@votive3946 Yes I have heard one and I completely agree with What Hi 2* review (they rarely get things wrong)- disorganised, poor timing and lacks energy and drive. I found the sound to be fizzy and brittle (through decent Q acoustic speakers). I think it’s selling primarily on its looks with the snazzy VU meters because for £1000 or thereabouts you can buy far superior amps. The Rega Brio absolutely destroys it! Maybe the soon to be released Technics R1000 will bring Technics amplifiers back onto the scene but this one certainly won’t. Shame because Technics have made some astounding transistor amps, I own an SU-V90D and it’s superb! If you are happy with yours then that’s fantastic and everyone is entitled to their opinion and hifi is very subjective but I found the C700 very underwhelming and for the money, very overpriced.

I also have a Rogers Cadet III valve amp and I can honestly say the Rega is the best transistor amplifier that I’ve heard without spending snake oil money! In comparison to the Rogers it conveys warmth and tone that is almost comparable with the added timing of transistors and that is really saying something.
