Pro-Ject T1

Elegant turntable with an excellent performance/price ratio, awarded the prestigious EISA 2020 /2021 award

The first turntable in the new T Series that aims to deliver true hi-fi sound at a surprisingly low price. The manufacturing process and choice of premium materials result in a sleek, stylish design and rich, vibrant sound. All without the compromises common in such a low price range.

No plastic parts were used in the manufacture of the chassis and it is carefully crafted so that you won't find any voids inside. As a result, unwanted vibrations are effectively eliminated. The T1 turntable is fitted with a heavy glass platter. This design results in the perfect elimination of resonances common in other low-cost solutions with a platter made of plastic, aluminum or other lightweight materials. Purposefully chosen feet ensure excellent isolation of the turntable from ambient vibrations.

Thanks to the chosen drive solution, the T1 is able to ensure smooth and stable platter rotation, necessary for precise guidance of the arm and the stylus in the groove.The T1's new straight turntable arm is based on Pro-Ject's proven solutions. With an effective length of 8.6", rigid one-piece aluminium construction and excellent bearing with minimal friction are important aspects for absolute tracking accuracy. The headshell is part of the arm, and in addition to its elegant appearance, this solution avoids vibrations and bringsThis is a significant improvement over removable glued or otherwise mounted headshells.The T1 turntable is supplied with an Ortofon OM5e MM cartridge with elliptical diamond tip pre-installed to ensure a vivid and accurate sound.

Included with the T1 is a heavily shielded phono cable with semi-symmetrical geometry and low capacitance with RCA termination, designed by Pro-Ject. A dust cover and felt platter pad are also available for added protection of your phono records.

The T1 is a new price wonder. A hi-fi turntable that looks and sounds great, made in Europe, in a factory with decades of tradition and experience in developing and manufacturing high-end turntables.
