    The PLX-1000 is precision engineered for the booth, drawing on 50 years’ experience of making high-end turntables.

    From the manufacturer

    High-torque direct drive professional turntable (black)

    A REBORN CLASSIC

    • The PLX-1000 is precision engineered for the booth, drawing on 50 years’ experience of making high-end turntables. The result is a familiar layout with some next generation improvements, including a high-torque direct drive system, multi-pitch control, club-grade build and sound quality, and detachable power and audio cables. It’s solidly built for excellent vibration damping and ultra-precise, high-grade audio playback.
    • Simply add your choice of cartridge and stylus to the PLX-1000 (not included) and combine with your mixer for an ideal setup for turntablists. An ideal match for DJs is the handmade PC-X10 (sold separately).

    Key Features

    Turn the Tables

    The high-torque direct drive ensures stable rotation and exceptional control – and it reaches 33⅓ rpm in just 0.3 seconds thanks to a starting torque of 4.5kg/cm (or more).

    Excellent Sound Design

    The PLX-1000’s heavy-mass, die-cast zinc chassis prevents resonance and vibrations. The lower part of the unit is reinforced with 8mm-thick resin, plus 9mm-thick, vibration-damping material at the base. Plus the rubber-insulated tone arm reduces howling effects, while rubber and springs on the dampening parts of the insulator absorb external vibrations.

    Pick Up The Pace

    Multi-tempo control lets you instantly pick up or slow down the track to ±8%, ±16% and ±50%, while a simple reset button instantly reverts to ±0%.

    Flexible connectivity

    Interchangeable power and audio cables can be easily connected and replaced, and pro-grade gold-plated RCA jacks ensure low impedance and an amazing sound quality.

    excellent but not well packed
    These are actually superior to the SL1200. Yes I have had both and this is my second PLX-1000. This one arrived in like new condition except for the dust cover with was broken in transit. I came in the original box but without the styrofoam inserts. I am hoping they will replace the dust cover. Will keep the turntable.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good TT
    Reviewed in Canada on March 10, 2021
    Received my Pioneer PLX-1000 month ago. The TT quality is good. But be prepared for some custom adjustment. There are some differences from "parent" Technics TT. The minimum cartridge height for this TT is 19mm, but lot of cartridges have the 18mm height. So, it was required to use 2mm shim with Ortofon cartridge to correctly set VTA. Also the overhang is 54mm instead of 52mm, so its not possible to use the Technics Needle Adjustment Gauge. Overal this TT is excelent.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful turntable
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 12, 2021
    Build quality was my first thought when buying a turntable, I didn't want something flimsy and light, I wanted a unit that had some heft to it. The PLX 1000 is built like a tank, and its very heavy, it has a solid platter a thick rubber mat that does not just dampen vibration it eliminates them altogether. comes with 2 other mats, for scratching, it looks gorgeous and the sound quality from the deck is beautiful, I have a Nagaoka MP 110 cartridge I have not used yet, I got a second head shell as a spare and that came with an Audio Technica cartridge AT3600L and its a cheap cartridge but my god on this turntable sounds great, punchy, great bass and very clear, for the price Its a great cartridge. So even a £20.00 cartridge sounds fantastic, I cant recommend the Pioneer PLX 1000 enough, its a good solid unit, that looks great and sounds even better.
