Pioneer PL-L1000

2-Speed direct drive turntable with static balance type linear tracking tonearm

Pioneer PL-L1000

Description

The PL-L1000 comes fitted with a linear tracking tonearm which traces the sound grooves on the record linearly in the same way that the master cutting machine cuts the grooves in the first place. This means that the linear system is superior to conventional offset tonearms in many ways:

(1) There is no tracking error thus preventing the generation of harmonic distortion.

(2) In principle, there is no generation of inside force and so the crosstalk and intermodulation distortion are improved and the positioning of the sound image is stabilized.

(3) The tonearm pipe is linear for optimum lateral balance.

(4) It is possible to shorten the effective length of the tonearm and so this feature makes for a low equivalent mass and high rigidity. This combination also reduces resonance in the parts and compound resonance.
