Pioneer DJ PLX-500 Turntable

Pioneer DJ PLX-500 Turntable

Pioneer DJ PLX-500 is a direct-drive turntable.

Color options: black (PLX-500-K) or white (PLX-500-W).

A short signal path from stylus to output reduces distortion for warm, clear analog sound. The PHONO/LINE switch selects an output suitable for a DJ mixer or powered speakers.

The USB-B connection records vinyl audio to a computer. RCA connections carry the analog audio, while USB provides a separate route for digital archiving.

The package includes a cartridge with stylus and a silver PC-HS01-S headshell. The dust-cover stand displays the record sleeve while you listen.
