About the PD151 II Black Edition Centennial

The Luxman PD-151 Mark II Black Edition Centennial is an ultra-limited edition turntable part of Luxman's 100th anniversary Black Edition package, reimagining the PD-151 Mark II with a sleek black finish and gold accents. It employs a belt-drive system with a brushless DC motor using PID control for precise speed stability across 33 1/3, 45, and 78 RPM, adjustable independently by ±6%. The 4.0kg high-mass machined aluminum platter (300mm diameter, 25mm thick, moment of inertia 0.219 t·cm²) ensures smooth rotation, supported by a rigid 16mm stainless-steel spindle with PEEK thrust bearing and brass radial bearing. The LTA-309 S-shaped tonearm, developed with SAEC, features knife-edge bearings, effective length 222.5mm, overhang 18mm, pivot-to-spindle 204.5mm, VTA adjustment up to 15mm, and supports cartridges 4-10g (up to 19g with optional weight). Housed in a 10mm diamond-cut aluminum top plate with matte black chassis, rubber damping mounts isolate the motor and transformer. Wow & flutter is 0.04% or less (WRMS), often measured lower at 0.02%. Includes machined aluminum headshell, oxygen-free copper wiring, anti-skate, counterweight, EP adaptor, rubber mat, and detachable power cable. Optional acrylic dustcover and heavier counterweight available. Designed for transparent, detailed analog playback with exceptional solidity, dynamics, and stability.
