Pioneer Pl-115d

Hello,

I just won an auction on Ebay for a Pioneer PL-115D. I was wondering if anyone could tell me about this turntable. Is it a good model? Will it lathe my vinyl? Just anything anyone knows that might stand out about it. I'm just now starting to get back into vinyl, so it's been a bit of an overwhelming search just to find a turntable LOL...

thanks

Post the auction id so we can take a look at it.

Its not a bad choice the budget end of the market.

The most important thing for your records is to have a well
chosen and set up cartridge in good condition with the right
tracking weight, bias and geometry.

I think I may have tweaked one of these in the past, or a very
similar model, but to a degree it does depend how skilled you are.

(I didn't go to town on that particular turntable, as the owner
was fairly non-critical, and a bit lazy and it was for occasional use,
so IMO keeping the automatic functions was a good idea)

/sreten.
