Pioneer releases the new PLX-1000 Professional Turntable.

The PLX-1000 has a similar look to the technique MK1200. According to Q-Burt it also has a similar feel.

The PLX-1000 has a tempo control on the right side of the player, start/stop button on the left side and a high-torque platter with a light speed guide, very similar to the technique 1200.

The PLX-1000 has a tempo control on the right side of the player, start/stop button on the left side and a high-torque platter with a light speed guide, very similar to the technique 1200.

The player provides a range of tempo adjustments from ±8% and ±16% to ±50%, giving users a range of pitch speeds. A “RESET” button for tempo sits next to the tempo slider for instant ±0% fixed rotation speed.

With a High-torque direct drive system, tempo controls that allow you to adjust from ±8% and ±16% to ±50%, detachable power and audio cables and a starting price of $699. I would have to say they definitely tried to improve on the turntable with a slightly lower price. The average MK1200 now and days goes for approximately $1000.
