Sony PS-X555ES
(1983 - 1992)

The only ES-tagged turntable, available for almost 10 years but only to see the demise of the LP standard...
Gone with it would be Sony's expensive effort on the Biotracer arm which market-wise never really made the grade. The PS-X555ES record player used a tangential version, rather different from the 1977/78 original design and different as well from the one used on the earlier PS-X800. Tangential never really made the grade either btw...
