It is belt drive but belts are easy to find. The 1000 is basically an upgraded PF-800. It is a suspended design.
Yamaha PF-1000 vs Systemdek IIX ?
I am thinking of purchasing a Yamaha PF-1000 turntable to replace my Systemdek IIX. Any thoughts?
My system is:
Systemdek IIX with DL103
Jolida Envoy preamp with phono section
Canary Audio CA-301MkII tube amp
Synergistic Research Designer Ref cables
Acoustic Research AR-9 speakers (1980's model)
Also:
Marantz SA-1 cd
Nakamichi Dragon cassette
Yamaha CDR-HD1500 music server
