  • 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

  • Finally, a Direct Drive for Audiophiles on a Budget!
I've been spinning vinyl for over 50 years as a budget conscious audiophile. Had everything from portable 3-speed record players, Dual 1219, belt drive Pioneers, and now this Pioneer PLX-1000 DJ deck. Also have a 3 year old Rega and an early 80's Sony DD with the "Bio Tracer" tone arm. From my home audiophile perspective, this turntable equals and exceeds my performance expectations. Audiophile desired features include: RCA output jacks, quick disconnect power, VTA tone arm adjustment, improved sound deadening in the base and tone arm, and a common easy change head shell on an "S" shaped tone arm. All features an audiophile may want in a sturdy, precision DD turntable. I have extra head shells with cartridges with my favorites being the AT7V MM and a Denon 301MKII MC. This deck keeps rock stable speed and is dead quiet in use, with NO tone arm bearing issues as a few have mentioned. I find this deck to be well made, well designed, and operates with precision, especially at this price point. These OEM clones of the original Technics 1200 decks share many similarities, but they each have their brand name signature on them, some better than others. The Pioneer PLX-1000 fills the need for most audiophiles on a budget. A recommended "Buy" for this use. ... show more

  • Amazing quality TT that won't break your bank.
Absolute quality! I replaced my AT-LP120XBT with the PLX-1000 and I couldn't be happier! This TT is HEAVY! Built as solid as it gets. Every single thing that was thin plastic on my old Audio Technica is solid metal on this unit. If you're wanting a higher quality TT and don't want to break the bank, this is the product for you. It does not come with a phono cartridge, just a headshell, but grab an ortofon, Nagaoka, or whatever is in youre price range and you'll be good to go. (This unit does have a universal headshell slot FYI so you can put whatever pre mounted set up you'd like) 5 stars all day! ... 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

  • Defective unit, no support, long wait and no solution
The media could not be loaded. I purchased the Pioneer DJ PLX-1000 turntable through the official Pioneer DJ store on Amazon on February 9, 2025. Unfortunately, the product arrived with a factory defect — the platter is visibly misaligned and wobbles during playback, making it unusable for professional use. It's been over two months, and despite sending the invoice, video proof, and contacting both Amazon and Pioneer DJ multiple times, I still haven’t received a proper solution. The local service in Argentina denied the warranty because the unit wasn’t registered through their importer, even though it was bought from Pioneer DJ’s official Amazon store. The lack of support and the long delay in resolving a clear manufacturing issue is unacceptable. If you're outside the U.S., I strongly advise against purchasing from this store — you may end up with a defective product and no real support. ... show more

  • Tone Arm Bearing Adjustment Required - It’s Still A Great Turntable
The media could not be loaded. I had to tweak the tonearm bearings on mine. I still gave it 5 stars. A small screwdriver and a minute of my time was all that was required. I turned both vertical and horizontal screws just a touch. Less than a degree. Afterwards this turntable has performed flawlessly. Some people would have returned it. I’m glad I didn’t. I am using an Audio Technica AT-VM95ML cartridge with my PL-1000. No rumble, dead quiet, accurate speed, great tracking, excellent ergonomics, comes with very good cables and detachable power cord. Designed for DJ’ng the PLX-1000 is also an excellent audio turntable for the enthusiast, a huge bargain. ... show more
