    Ortofon OM cartridge on Pioneer PL12D

    Hello, I have a Pioneer PL12D with a Shure M7 5ED Mk II cartridge on it and I thought I'd try it with an Ortofon OM10 on it. It does sound more detailed and the separation is more spacious. However, it's much quieter. I have to turn the volume up on the amp to get the same level as the Shure...

    Seeking PL-12D 50hz motor (pulley)

    Dropping this in the Pioneer forum instead of turntables as I assume it's likely going to be a Pioneer specialist that can help. I saw, via forum search, that someone else had the same issue a few years ago. I moved from Portland Oregon (60hz) to The Netherlands (50hz) and now my turntable runs...

    Replacement cartridge for Pioneer PL12D

    Please bear with me if this question has been asked and answered or if I'm I posted in the wrong place. I've only been back into proper audio equipment, I.e. the awesome vintage stuff I grew up with, for about a year and I'm still getting used to the site. I picked up a rocking Sansui 881 amp...

    Help with Pioneer PL12D

    Hi, I just joined the forum. After mulling over for more than a year I went ahead and bought my first turntable: a Pioneer PL12D in apparent good condition. The seller played a record on it for a couple of minutes when showing it to me, and it sounded OK, although he did tell me I would need to...

    My almost 37+ year old system

    This system sounds great to me. It's one of about of five or six combinations of systems I can put together, as I have collected 1970's hi-fi for a few years now. The Pioneer PL12D, TEAC A2300SD, Sansui G5500 and a pair of Celestion Ditton 44's, all combine to give a great sound irrespective...
