A 40-page full-line Technics catalog for autumn 1981, opening with the SV-P100 PCM recorder at 600,000 yen - digital audio via a consumer VCR transport at a price that would make most wallets weep. The turntable section covers everything from the Jacket Size SL-7/SL-10/SL-15 with linear tracking up to the SP-10MK3 reference motor unit used by 30 broadcasters worldwide, plus four SP-series motor units total. New Class A amplifiers (SU-V9 through SU-V3) promise 0.003% THD, and the flagship SB-MI speaker with honeycomb disk cone is listed without price - scheduled for December arrival.
- ニュークラスA - New Class A - Technics amplifier topology with Linear Feedback (LFB) circuit achieving 0.003% THD at 120W + 120W
