## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does this pioneer plx-1000 compare to the audio-technica at-lp-1240?**
A: I've opened both up.  They are essentially the same.  People saying the pioneer is better are confusing the AT 1240 with the cheaper 120 or just regurgitating stuff they read someplace.

**Q: What headshell can I buy as a replacement?**
A: The bearings are extremely easy to adjust and are designed to be slightly tightened. A miniature screwdriver and a needle nose pliers are all that is needed. loosen the outer ring and then tighten the internal screw 1 or 2 degrees. They should not be tight, just tight enough to not jiggle. I own 8 technic 1200 turntables a few Vestax turntables and a few belt drive audiophile belt drive turntables. All the dj style turntables need to have bearings adjusted periodically. Completly Normal. Standard Headshells are readily available. Audiophile headshells are also made.

**Q: Where is this product manufactured?**
A: Manufactured in China. Designed in Japan. Hope it helps

**Q: Does this have a built-in preamp?**
A: Most DJ professional turntables will not have a preamp.  Those are inside of our DJ mixers.  It’s easy enough to get a preamp or a mixer if you plan on ripping sound files.
