Pioneer - PL115D Turntable

Pioneer PL-115D turntable, a vintage model from the late 1970s (around 1977-1980).
It's a belt-drive turntable, semi-automatic with an auto-return feature: you manually place the tonearm at the start of the record, it plays, and at the end of the side it lifts the needle and returns the tonearm to its resting position (auto-return). It's not fully automatic like newer models.
Main features
• Speeds: 33⅓ and 45 RPM.
• 4-pole synchronous motor, very quiet.
• 30 cm cast aluminum plate.
Straight, static-balanced tonearm, with anti-skate adjustment and manual cueing lift.
• Wow & flutter: 0.07% (very low for the era).
• Signal-to-noise ratio: >50 dB.
• Dark marbled base.
