Pioneer PLX-500

Having inherited its layout from the professional PLX-1000 turntable, the PLX-500 produces a warm and clear analog sound. So it's the perfect deck if you want to start playing with vinyl, or just listen to your record collection at home.

Like the PLX-1000, the PLX-500 is built to produce high-quality vinyl sound. We have kept the audio routing from the needle to the outputs as short as possible to minimize distortion, and you can connect your turntable directly to your sound system or mains-powered speakers via the phone/line output switch, without the need for an external amplifier.

Convert your vinyl collection to high-quality digital files by simply connecting the turntable to your PC or mac via the USB output.

Use the PLX-500 to play and mix with your vinyl records, or combine the turntable with rekordbox dvs, a compatible DJ mixer and the RB-VS1-K Control Vinyl to play and scratch with digital files.
