The PL-L1000 managed to remain a fairly affordable yet good linear tracker with apetizing looks, convenient and well designed features : somewhat simpler than Sony's velocity sensors and more straightforward than Yamaha's flat rubber belt-driven tonearm.

 

The linear tracking is here done by crossing coils and magnets, so that, when current reaches the former, the latter movs the tonearm by the magnets' "repulsion" - linear induction real-time corrected by an optical sensor and a differential amplifier to avoid overshoots either ways and keep the tonearm's metal rollers free from dragging on the two rails.

 

this 1981 Masterpiece is quite rare! And this table works exactly as it should!!

the Audio Technica cartridge sounds incredible
