It has recieved a FULL service, platter bearing and spindle removed, stripped ultra sonically cleaned, tested and re lubricated as has the motor. new suspension pads fitted as well as a new belt and cartridge (MM). The unit has also under gone a thorough deep clean. Has been set up cartridge weight set to 2 gramms with anti skate to match, speed measured @ 33.43 Rpm. Ran & tested with three sets ups, genuinelly sound very good indeed. Your chance to own a piece of audio history in good way, it has all been done for you just plug & play.
The Pioneer PL-12D is a legendary 1970s belt-drive, manual turntable known for its reliability, excellent sound quality, and high value. It features a distinctive S-shaped tonearm, suspended platter, and is highly regarded as a robust “workhorse” that performs well with good cartridges like Shure or Audio-Technica.
The PL-12D is often described as a “giant killer” for its price, offering high-fidelity sound that competes with more expensive, newer decks. A clean, serviced example is considered a bargain for beginners and enthusiasts alike.
