Pioneer DJ introduces the PLX-500 turntable for fans of vintage sound
The physical format in music, while it may have died, has ironically been resurrected thanks to the vinyl record format for its higher audio quality and because it doesn't degrade over time. This is why specialized sound brands have been bringing new models of turntables, such as Pioneer DJ with its PLX-500, which incorporates new audio technologies in a classic format that has become fashionable again.
Therefore, new turntables with cutting-edge technology are presented as an ideal Christmas gift for music lovers who have rediscovered their passion for vinyl. Enjoying music is both a social and a private experience, and it unites people since it can reveal the most about them; consequently, how they play music also says a lot about them.

It is wrong what is said in the article that the vinyl format does not degrade over time, although it should not degrade keeping it stored and handled correctly, it suffers from degradation since it works based on friction, the needle degrades it every time it goes through the groove, the only format that does not degrade when used is the compact disc, the latter, being original, last longer than the recordable ones (CD-R) in terms of durability over time depending on the quality of the disk.

It has been on the market for years...
Hello, I want to know the price and where I can get it
I bought 2 and after 1 year they stopped spinning. The dish motors died, too bad.
What a lack of knowledge about the medium. The sound of vinyl DOES degrade over time, the grooves wear out if you use them too often, so the finer nuances are lost after a few years, or they get filled with dust that ends up "clouding" the original sound, etc.
Excellent option for those of us who like retro. Very good.
presents ??? They are not new enough to be a newly released product.
It has been out for more than 6 years.
At what prices do they sell them?
