  • Great for home use
I was looking at a Technics or this turntable. After a lot of reviews said this sounded as good and was cheaper, I went with the Pioneer. So far it sounds fantastic. It's a heavy unit, but takes up the same about of space as most Turntables. Setup isn't hard, fine tuning is a little more difficult, but not to hard. It does not come with a cartridge. I paired it with a Audio Technics AT-VM95ML. You just connect to the 4 poles and slide it on the arm. Even with buying the Cartridge it was cheaper than the Technics of the same capabilities. Assembly of the table is as simple as putting in the table. You get different tops if you want to listen or DJ And scratch. So, something for any use. The player is well laid out and has slot for the 45 adapter. As I don't need the DJ options I just reset everything to defaults and played records. The instructions included and online can walk you through a proper setup. The player does not come with an equalizer or amplifier. My receiver has a Phono input so it plugs right in. If you don't have a Phono input you'll need an external device to get the sound to line level. It comes with a RCA cable and ground wire. It does not have auto return at the end of the record. Once everything was set I tried rock, jazz, classical, and it all sounds great. The lights blue record and a white needle light at not a distraction and the needle light can be turned off. Overall, a nice turntable for home use. I'm getting back into records and this was a nice compromise between a beginner turntable and spending over a $1K for a decent turntable. All seems good to me. ... show more

  • Best turntable
Excellent. Paired wit ATVM95EN cartridge, superb combo. LPs come alive. Music jumps at you. Outside of setting vta no adjustments needed. Plug and play. The quality, build and ease of use are incredible. Youtube shows some people have issues with tone arn bearings being loose on unpackaging. Others complain about tracking. Musy be older units. My tonearm bearings are as smooth as oiled glass. Tracking is dead on. Actually worth twice the price. ... show more

  • It's was worth it, was hesitant at first but it's what I end up getting no regrets.
It's worth it, if you're thinking of buying the Pioneer DJ PLX 500 save your money and buy this one. It's so good and is worth it even if you have to buy your own cartridge for the head shell, if you're looking for a home turntable or DJ the Pioneer PLX 1000 is the best for your money the speed is on point both for the 33rpm and 45rpm with the amazing motor that it's rocking. I love the look, the blue strobe light is the best and so far the sound quality is amazing rocking a Ortofon Concorde Music Blue Phono Cartridge. Over all the function is simple and easy to use. ... show more

  • Excellent Choice for a Turntable Upgrade
I've recently returned to listening to vinyl records and conservatively started out with the entry-level, budget friendly Audio Technica LP-120 USB turntable. However I quickly outgrew it. In my search for a new one, I did a lot of reading and found audiophile reviews praising the qualities and features of the Pioneer PLX-1000. It's built for DJ's yet has all the features loved by audiophiles. It's solid with very low vibration. In comparison to the AT LP-120, the PLX is much heavier AND quieter. The LP-120 is noisy. I instantaneously noticed there's more bass and it's deep, detailed and rich. The bass came alive. The LP-120 comes with a pre-amp and the PLX 1000 does not. The AT comes with a stock AT95E cartridge and head shell and the PLX provides a head shell but no cartridge. I actually didn't mind because I never used the AT95E cart and immediately upgraded to a Sumiko Pearl and Nagaoka MP-110. I'm thinking about upgrading to the Nagaoka 200 now that I have a table worthy of it. The RCA cables are attached to the AT LP-120 and removable on the PLX. When I bought my first component stereo system decades ago, direct drive turntables were favored and more expensive than belt driven. I had a belt driven because I couldn't afford the DD. Today, I personally don't want to deal with belts when switching from 33 to 45 or spend more $$$ for the automated feature. Which reminds me, the AT has a 78 but the PLX does not. If you're looking to upgrade your table, take a look at the Pioneer PLX 1000. ... show more

  • Almost...
I returned this turntable today. I have been looking for a decent quality turntable for some time now. Until now, I had been using a heavily used Technics SL1200 MK2. It was still performing well, but the cue lever placement and tracking were off, and I just felt like I was missing something sonically. I started my search with the Audio-Technica AT-LP140XP, and sent it back. The Pioneer is markedly higher in quality. I returned the Pioneer for two reasons; the unattached lid was a pain, and more importantly, the speed was off, very slightly. The strobe showed a pattern on the platter that jittered, barely, but I could see it. This could not be heard with even the most steady tones. I should stress that this was a minor quirk that I have seen on many other turntables. I just wanted better for $700. The other issue that I dealt with was the loose tonearm bearings, but that was an easy fix. All said, this is a very solid, well built, fun to use turntable, that also happens to sound great. If you can get past the quirks mentioned above, it's a great deck. What did I replace it with? I finally went for it and bought the real deal, the Technics SL1210GR. ... show more
