Pro-Ject Primary E

In recent years, listening to analogue records has again established itself as a fixed factor in the lives of many people. This trend has also awakened many manufacturers from the Far East. They are now trying to jump on the bandwagon with plastic, features, lower quality and low prices. Unfortunately we forget what makes a good turntable. Namely sound quality and not unnecessary features like automatic limit switching. Sound quality can only be achieved by using high-quality components and precision to get everything out of the micro-groove. Plastic, light turntables, wobbly tonearms and the cheapest wiring with the simplest pickups are not suitable.

By cleverly designing the tonearm, we were able to combine full sound quality with even easier installation. Our plug&play design with preset print run and antiskating has saved us money and is easier for the customer to use without sacrificing sound quality. On the contrary, the ultra-light and low-friction aluminum tonearm is optimized for the Ortofon cartridge and unfolds its purest potential. Through intelligent construction and without unnecessary features, we were able to keep the price attractive despite European handiwork. This enables us to offer our customers maximum sound quality.
