Pro-Ject launches a brand new Pro turntable | Sim Planet

2021-12-08 06:42:00 By : Ms. Anna Zhao

The new heavy-duty nickel-plated machined aluminum bearing housing increases the mass at the pivot and ensures free movement for precise tracking. Pro-Ject says that the disc is an aluminum mold with integrated TPE damping, which achieves a perfect combination of quality and low internal resonance.

The new products of the Debut series can be adjusted in both arm height and azimuth angle, so that a wider range of high-quality ink cartridges can be set perfectly, including the excellent Sumiko Rainer, which is part of the package and precisely aligned with the factory by experts.

Other features include height-adjustable feet with integrated resonance damping, electronic speed selection, removable acrylic dust cover, and high-quality semi-symmetrical fiber optic cable (Connect It E).

Like all Pro-Ject Audio Systems turntables, the special edition Debut PRO is handmade in Europe and will be sold in limited quantities at some Pro-Ject dealers in the United States starting in August 2021, with a suggested retail price of US$899.

Submitted by: Keen Observer Week Six, 2021-07-31 04:45 Pro-Ject's website says $999. Michael gave $899 as the "retail price" (the price you can expect to pay at the retailer), and I confirmed this from an online reseller. Is it entry-level? Pro-Ject’s website has its own category tags applied to this model: "Aspiring enthusiasts, casual crate excavators, debut carousels, luxury listeners, carousels." The term "entry-level" in various contexts is usually Refers to the lowest level. For turntables, I think this means that the minimum acceptable level of performance is considered high fidelity. Of course, you would expect the price to be commensurate with performance and functionality. In terms of performance, I would put it into the entry-level category, although it has some interesting features that can increase its price. Nevertheless, I would not buy a three-legged turntable, and I don't think I like its drive system (see the image of the removed platter, where the belt drives a separate plastic "daughter platter").

What do you value in your life? For me, I think this Definitely suitable for entry-level scales, I even thought I might get one just put in my home office and put my refuge 501-111, I just re-tip it, it might sound sweet to log in or sign up to post a comment The winning formula submitter DrJB is on Sun, 2021-07-18 23:12 I still have a Project Classic that I like to use from time to time. It has some of the characteristics of Debut Pro-aluminum/carbon fiber tonearm, TPE damping components, etc. I have always thought that the only weak link is the slightly illusory tonearm bearing assembly, so I am happy to see that they solve an important part of this problem. Maybe Sumiko will provide new parts for the old deck in the future. Otherwise, the build quality is impressive (Czech Republic?) and my experience with Sumiko USA customer service is excellent. ESD took out the main circuit board on my Classic, and they were willing to send me the parts directly (and soon!) so that I could replace it myself. The price of Pro seems a bit high, but maybe production costs are rising. Nevertheless, I still hope to get a more isolated motor design at this price, but their tonearm and Speed ​​Box system are beyond the level of most entry-level turntables. Thanks for the information.

Then what you need is an outrigger kit that can widen the table so that you can add a second ProJect tonearm. Or you can only have two shells. Don’t these things have quick-break cartridge cases?

As for this table: considering all the adjustments available, the materials used, etc., and the label we call $900, I would not consider it an "entry level."

Audio equipment has gone up by an average of $100! If you think this is not good, look at the car (this is not a good time to buy a car, whether it's a new car or a used car). You can also consider a similar table, such as the Clear Audio Concept, which starts at about $1600! Also "considered an entry level", it is as good as a table, maybe slightly worse, and the cost is doubled! So this table is very valuable. Log in or register to post a comment. I want to know if the tonearm is the same as the one submitted by WaltonGoggins on Tue, 2021-07-27 21:21 X1. The extra $100 for X1 seems to be totally worth it, unless I am missing something.

That is a nice table. Simple and elegant.

For novice enthusiasts, this is a good analog entry-level choice. For many people, this is what they need.

"...The plate is aluminum mold...".

"...A high-quality semi-symmetrical fiber optic cable...".

I haven't read enough to catch the second error, because I stopped to check Pro-Ject's website to see if the first error was just copied/pasted or introduced by Michael. I did not find the exact wording used by Michael. On the contrary, part of the description of the disc on the Pro-Ject website says: "TPE damping is used to control resonance and die-casting to achieve high fidelity accuracy. The disc is made of aluminum..." So it is concluded The drawing seems very clear.

Basically $1,000 is considered a bit steep for entry. Level table, I still think EVO will be an entry-level model, if not a lower model.

I read very well, thank you. And can do things like abstract thinking. 899 dollars, let’s take a look, including the 7% tax in Maryland, which can be as high as 962 dollars. Is it close to $1,000 for you?

X1. The extra $100 for X1 seems totally worth it, unless I'm missing something.
