Pro-Ject is celebrating 30 years since its founding this year, and one of the festive releases will be the Pro-Ject Debut Pro turntable. The developers themselves\u00a0called the<\/a> turntable “accessible audiophilia”, in which they returned to the principles underlying the company.<\/p>\n

The design is based on the Debut Evo model, but differs in many ways from it.\u00a0For example, the new item has a hybrid carbon-metal arm in a sandwich structure – but the classic Pro-Ject length of 8.6 inches.\u00a0According to the company, the inner aluminum layer will improve damping and noise isolation, while the outer carbon layer will add rigidity.<\/p>\n

Azimuth and VTA are available from the settings, which will allow you to adjust the tonearm to work with different cartridges and mats.\u00a0Running included MM-head Pick-It Pro – a new development,\u00a0established<\/a>\u00a0in conjunction with Ortofon.\u00a0It is equipped with an elliptical sharpened needle and, according to Pro-Ject, produces a “charismatic sound” that matches the stylish appearance.\u00a0In fact, the model combines the features of the Ortofon 2M and SPU cartridges.\u00a0In the US, the turntable will ship with Sumiko Rainier.<\/p>\n

The table is made of MDF.\u00a0The motor is mounted on a separate plate, which is secured to the table through thermoplastic elastomer spacers.\u00a0Such a circuit is said to achieve stability from the motor by effectively isolating it.\u00a0The table itself is installed on three adjustable metal legs.<\/p>\n

The subdisk is put on a bearing with a bronze glass, and a relatively heavy aluminum support disk with a damping ring made of thermoplastic elastomer is already attached to it.\u00a0All aluminum parts in the turntable are nickel plated.<\/p>\n

Speed \u200b\u200bcontrol is electronic.\u00a0The turntable with belt drive supports 33.3 and 45 revolutions, the speed switch is located under the table.\u00a0The novelty is equipped with a transparent dust cover.<\/p>\n

The start of sales is scheduled for August – in Europe, Pro-Ject Debut Pro will cost 750 euros.<\/p>\n
