Pioneer PL-70LII

Drive System: The PL-70LII uses a direct drive system with a quartz PLL DC servo Hall motor, providing precise speed control and stability. It features a Stable Hanging Rotor (SH) / rotor system for reduced vibration.

Turntable: The turntable has a 31 cm diameter die-cast aluminum platter with an inertia mass of 480 kg/cm² (including the turntable sheet). This design helps in maintaining stable rotation.

Speeds: The turntable supports 33 1/3 rpm and 45 rpm, with electronic speed change using a short stroke switch.

Wow and Flutter: The wow and flutter are 0.008% or less (WRMS/FG direct reading method) and 0.018% or less (WRMS/JIS), indicating excellent speed stability.

Signal-to-Noise Ratio: The signal-to-noise ratio is 85 dB or more (DIN-B) and 68 dB or more (JIS), providing good noise suppression.

Tonearm: The tonearm is a static balance type with a straight pipe arm made from carbon graphite for high rigidity and low resonance. It features a carbon fiber composite headshell with a weight of approximately 7.6g.

Cartridge Compatibility: The turntable can accommodate cartridges weighing 3g to 14g (straight) and 6g to 32g (S-shaped), including the shell.

Height Adjustment Range: The tonearm height can be adjusted by +2 to -4 mm.

Special Features: It includes full automatic operation with features like quartz lock indicator, quick stop, and silent lift-up mechanisms. The turntable also features low-capacitance oxygen-free copper wires and gold-plated terminals to minimize transmission loss17.

Power Supply and Consumption: The turntable operates on 100 VAC, 50/60 Hz with a power consumption of 20W.

Dimensions and Weight: The external dimensions are 550 x 214 x 440 mm, with a weight of approximately 21.5 kg
