Hi!

I'm a new user, seeking the font that corresponds to the Technics logotype. If it is of any use, I can say that Technics is an audio manufacturer, specializing in the best turntables ever known to humankind. Thank you for your help!

Hi Flebert, Welcome to Typophile. It is helpful to us if you show us the type you want identified, so this time I found a Technics logo to post for you. It looks a bit like Egyptian 505 Bold to me, or some similar slab serif:

Thanks for the image, Mike! It's funny, because that's just the image that I was about to post!
I'll look for Egyptian 505 Bold.
Thank you very much, again.

This has come up before (here).

Incidentally, I think I've figured out how to search the "unsearchable" archives of Typophile: Use Google's option to search within a specific domain instead of Typophile's built-in search. I wonder if this is how James Gareth does it?
