Features
This unit is a high-torque direct drive turntable that can be enjoyed in a variety of applications ranging from home listening to DJing.

High-quality analog record sound
The path from the stylus tip to the PHONO/LINE output has been designed as the shortest to faithfully reproduce the original sound quality of analog records.
Furthermore, since not only PHONO output but also LINE output is supported, you can easily enjoy high quality analog record sound by simply directly connecting with powered speakers.

Easy digital recording
A USB-B terminal is provided so you can directly connect this unit and a PC or Mac and then record analog record sound sources to the PC or Mac by converting them to data. Digital recording with simple operation can be performed by using the recording function of the free music management application “rekordbox” (Ver.4.2.1 or later) when recording.

DJ performance capable direct-drive turntable
The adoption of a high-torque direct-drive system means you can perform track mixing, scratching, and other DJ performances by combining two of these units with a DJ mixer.

Dust cover that can serve as a stand for a record jacket
A record jacket can be displayed on the dust cover while the dust cover is in an open state. This allows you to enjoy analog record sound while looking at the record jacket.

Additional information

Troubleshooting

  • Incorrect operation is often mistaken for trouble or malfunction. If you think that there is something wrong with this component, check the points below and the [FAQ] for the [PLX-500] on the Pioneer DJ support site.
    pioneerdj.com/support/
    Sometimes the problem may lie in another component. Inspect the other components and electrical appliances being used. If the problem cannot be rectified, ask your nearest service center or your dealer to carry out repair work.

  • This unit may not operate properly due to static electricity or other external influences. In this case, proper operation may be restored by turning the power off, waiting 1 minute, then turning the power back on.

Cautions on use

About condensation
Water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit (on operating parts and lenses) in the winter, for example, if the unit is moved from a cold place into a warm room or if the temperature in the room in which the unit is installed rises suddenly (through heating, etc.). The unit will not operate properly and will not be playable with condensation inside.
Let the unit stand for 1 to 2 hours at room temperature (though this time depends on the conditions of the condensation) without turning on the power. The water droplets will evaporate and the unit will become playable. Condensation can occur in the summer as well if the unit is exposed to the direct wind from an air-conditioner, etc. If this happens, move the unit to a different location.

When transporting the unit to another location
Use the original packing materials to pack the unit.

If the original packing materials are not available, be sure to perform the following.

  • Detach the slip mat and turntable before packing.
  • Detach the headshell and balance weight from the arm and pack carefully.
  • Use the arm clamper to secure the tone arm and use tape to secure it so that it does not move.
  • Wrap the main unit in a blanket or soft paper so that it will not be damaged.
  • Pack so that a force will not be applied to the tone arm.

Maintenance of each part

When attaching and detaching the headshell, turn off the power of the amplifier.

If you attempt to do so while the volume is loud, the speaker could be damaged.

  • Remove the shell with cartridge and use a soft tip brush or writing brush to carefully remove dust, etc. from the stylus tip.
  • Use a good quality record cleaner to clean records.
  • Use a soft cloth or something similar to clean the headshell terminal and then reattach it to the tone arm.

Cleaning the dust cover, etc.
Use a soft cloth to clean the dust cover and cabinet

  • Do not clean the dust cover while playing. Static electricity could cause the tone arm to be pulled by the dust cover.
