All-electronic direct-drive turntable with brushless DC servo motor and super sensitive S-shaped tonearm.

Pioneer PL-71

Description

Pioneer's new direct-drive PL-71 is a quiet turntable and virtually vibration-free.

The brushless DC servo motor directly rotates the platter without belts or rim idlers, meaning vibration causing factors are eliminated.

This sophisticated direct-drive system and all-electronic DC servo control reduce wow and flutter to less than 0.05% (WRMS), and boasts signal to noise ratio to better than 60db - figures which place the PL-71 in the very top ranks of today's hi-fi turntables.

The built-in strobe gives you visible proof of it's accuracy.

Supporting this quality is its super sensitive S-shaped tonearm, developed by Pioneer to perform perfectly at light tracking pressures (0.5g and up) and ideal for stereo or 4-channel use.

The tonearm is professional throughout, with a lateral balancer, an anti-skating control, direct-readout stylus pressure scale, oil-damped cueing device, lightweight headshell and more.
