Pioneer DJ PLX-500-K Professional Turntable

Pioneer DJ PLX-500-K – Professional Direct-Drive Turntable with USB

The Pioneer DJ PLX-500-K is a professional turntable with a high-torque direct-drive system, suitable for both club DJing and enjoying music at home. Its design is based on the professional PLX-1000 turntable and delivers a warm, clear analog sound.

Thanks to its solid construction, excellent vibration damping, and an exceptionally short signal path from the stylus to the outputs, the PLX-500-K delivers precise audio playback with low distortion. The built-in USB port also makes it easy to digitize your vinyl collection on a Mac or PC.

Warm and Clear Vinyl Sound

The Pioneer DJ PLX-500-K was designed for high-quality, detailed vinyl playback. The short signal path and effective vibration damping reduce interference and enable precise reproduction of the analog audio signal.

Direct Drive for Mixing and Scratching

The brushless three-phase DC motor ensures reliable servo direct drive and a starting torque of more than 1.6 kgf/cm. The platter reaches its speed within one second at 33 revolutions per minute. This makes the turntable ideal for mixing and scratching records.

Easily digitize your vinyl collection

The PLX-500-K can be connected directly to a Mac or PC via the USB port. This allows you to digitize vinyl records conveniently and in high quality, then archive them as digital audio files.

Compatible with rekordbox DVS

When used with rekordbox DVS, a compatible DJ mixer, and the RB-VS1-K control vinyl, the turntable can be used to control digital audio files. This allows you to play and scratch tracks from your rekordbox music collection with low latency.

Convenient cover holder

The dust cover features built-in tabs for holding record sleeves. The sleeve of the record currently playing can be placed there so it’s visible.

Ready to Use

The Pioneer DJ PLX-500-K comes with a wide range of accessories. The package includes, among other things, a dust cover, a slipmat, and a headshell with a cartridge and stylus.
