    Pioneer PL-550X

    Yamaha YP-701 antiskate way off.

    This nice looking turntable has been sitting in the storeroom for at least six months and I wanted to get it working. I got a belt and set it up with a temporary low quality cartridge to see if it works. No I will not put it into use with that awful stylus overhang. It's just what I have to...
