Technics is on a great run at the moment. The brand had a bit of a rocky start when it was reintroduced into the market in 2014, but since then has quickly found its feet. Over recent years we’ve reviewed a fair number of the company’s products and they’ve invariably been solid and talented performers. Not all have been class leaders, of course, but more often than not Technics hits gold – as it has with the SA-C600 system we have on test here.
We call it a system, but you still need to add a pair of speakers. Consider the likes of Dali’s Oberon 1 standmounters (£399 / $599 / AU$719) a good starting point, but the SA-C600 has enough ability to justify going as high as KEF’s mighty LS50 Metas (£999 / $1599 / AU$2495). Fortunately, we have a pair of KEFs on hand for this test and use them alongside our usual reference speakers, the ATC SCM50.
