Pro-Ject T1 Phono SB

The T1 from Pro-Ject Audio Systems is the first turntable in the T-Line that delivers real HiFi sound quality for little money. It shines with high-quality materials, a stylish appearance and an incredibly lively sound. During the extensive development process, meticulous care was taken to ensure that no compromises were made in sound quality despite the incredible price.

The stylish CNC machined chassis, available in high-gloss black, matt white & walnut, contains no plastic parts and is manufactured without any cavities, so no unwanted vibrations can occur in the chassis. In keeping with this philosophy, the turntable is also made of solid glass. In contrast to plastic or light steel platters, unwanted resonances are effectively suppressed.

The turntable of the T1 is driven by a belt. This precisely transmits the driving force to the newly designed sub platter, which in turn sits in the ultra-precise 0.001mm platter bearing with a hardened stainless steel shaft in a brass bush.

The T1 tonearm is a new tonearm version based on Pro-Ject's long proven designs. The 8.6" long tonearm consists of a single piece of aluminum and is equipped with low-friction bearings so that scanning is always performed with absolute precision. The pre-assembled Ortofon OM 5E quality pickup with elliptical needle grinding makes this turntable a true hi-fi player without compromise.

In addition, the T1 is not - as is often the case - only delivered with simple Cinch cables. The scope of delivery includes excellent shielded, quasi-symmetrical, low capacitance phono cables, which were specially designed by Pro-Ject for the connection of turntables. In addition, a dust cover for additional protection of the T1 and a felt mat, which serves as a soft contact surface for your records, are also included in the package.

The T1 is the new shooting star among the affordable turntables. Production in Europe takes place in a factory with decades of tradition in turntable construction. This is exactly what makes the T1 a real HiFi turntable, which convinces in sound as well as optically.
