The brand Technics has been quietly phased out, when?[edit]

I think we have to mention when the brand was phaset out. (2010 maybe?) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.228.104.210 (talk) 13:01, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

1[edit]

This page should not be used to elaborate on the editor's specialty of turntables. The Technics brand covers many audio products, so the turntable discussion should be moved to another article. --Blainster 18:52, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I disagree, and have reverted your deletion of useful information; elaboration in a particular editor's area of specialty is exactly what is desired. It may be that Technics turntables deserve their own article eventually (though there is not really enough here yet to split) but wholesale deletion is not the right approach.

vinylengine=linkspam[edit]

vinylengine.com is a useful and oft cited resource for hard-to-find vintage audio equipment manuals and info that I've personally used recently. The appearance of Google text ads on the site should not sway one's judgement in this case.71.91.218.178 05:47, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Technics.svg[edit]

Image:Technics.svg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

3-head cassette deck[edit]

The article states: "In 1973 Technics was the first to use a three-head recording technique in a cassette deck (Technics RS-279US)."
I've marked that as "citation needed": many claim the first was the Nakamichi 1000, which was also first sold in 1973.

Links removed...[edit]

I removed many of the external links as violations of WP:EL because they are not information resources, but mainly resellers of equipment, manuals, and services. Furthermore, those links that did not fall into the category of resellers fell into the category of tangential relation to the article, and two of them were used as sources in the article, which precludes them from inclusion in external links. I would like to see a rationale given for their inclusion on a case-by-case basis if they are re-added. MSJapan (talk) 03:56, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation[edit]

What is the official way to pronounce Technics? (By "official," I mean the way it was pronounced by members of the company itself.) I've heard a lot of people pronounce it like the word "techniques" (tek-NEEX), while others pronounce it phonetically (TEK-nix). Which one is correct? 64.185.131.107 (talk) 17:18, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • TEK-nix is the correct pronunciation in the English. I can't speak about the native Japanese pronunciation, it may differ slightly. I think that this is not a matter for concern on this page, and is more appropriate for the Technics page itself. HenryHayes (talk) 10:32, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

inadequate content[edit]

Hello,

I think this contribution is not acceptable, but I'm not familiar with wikipedia's rules for posting.

"2010's: Recently Technics is attempting to sell High Resolution Audio (HRA) with a 16-bit depth and 48 kHz resolution. This is a disgrace and if Technics is serious about HRA they should offer 24 bit depth with 96 or 192 kHz resolution. This is just fraudulent and should be noted worldwide. While Sony and HD tracks and many other record labels try to make HRA publically available Technics is trying to sell near-CD quality as HRA, damaging the business. For the record, I am a private person with a passion for good music and am not affiliated with any of the aforementioned labels, Technics should be aware that HRA can work, in an open format such as FLAC" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.238.193.121 (talk) 13:00, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
