Sony PS-HX500

Name: Sony PS-HX500
Brand: Sony

Hi-fi turntables · 2016–? Discontinued

$200–$350 typical US used price

Sony's hi-res ripping deck: records vinyl to DSD and high-resolution PCM over USB, with a decent manual belt-drive platform underneath.

One of very few turntables that rips vinyl to DSD.

Good to know

Has a built-in phono stage, so it can feed a normal line input on an amplifier or powered speakers without a separate phono box.
Has a USB output for recording vinyl to a computer.
This is a used-market purchase. Ask about condition, originality and service history, especially the belt, bearing and stylus.
