Remarks:[edit]
- The Pioneer PL-512X is a 2-speed, manual, belt-driven turntable with static balance type S-shaped tonearm.
- Adjusting the speed is done by moving the belt to a different axle diameter of the motor shaft.
- The PL-512X is built so simple, nothing can break, no electronics were built in here,
Only the belt and needle need to be changed from time to time. The case is made of 30 mm MDF, milled out from the bottom and is closed with a hardboard lid.
- The simple construction guarantees decades of enjoyment.
