ProJect T1 Phono SB Turntable with Ortofon OM5E Cartridge

DESCRIPTION

 

A New Generation of Turntable – Made in Europe

The stylish CNC-machined plinth of the T1 features no plastic parts and is carefully manufactured to ensure there are no hollow spaces inside, therefore avoiding unwanted vibrations within the chassis. Carrying this philosophy through the design, the glass platter is also a heavy, zero-resonance design. Finally, the purpose-chosen turntable feet also do a good job of isolating the T1 from ambient vibrations around your hi-fi system. In the T1 the motor drives a belt-system, attached to a newly designed sub-platter, which is mounted into an ultra-precise 0.001mm main bearing with a hardened steel axle and brass bushing – just like our Essential III turntables. The tonearm new tonearm has an effective length of 8.6”. This one-piece aluminium tonearm also features low-friction bearings for absolute accuracy in use. The T1 comes with a pre-adjusted Ortofon OM 5E Moving Magnet cartridge and is ready to use right out of the box. Also super shielded, semi-symmetrical, low-capacitance Pro-Ject phono cables are included.

Performance

One of Pro-Ject’s main strengths is its ability to provide solid turntables designed to get the very best out of your vinyl collection for a broad range of prices. From entry-level products to the brand’s flagship model, Pro-Ject’s turntables guarantee excellent value for money and boast a first-rate build.

The Pro-Ject T1 turntable is pre-set, meaning that the cartridge is already mounted and that the counterweight and tonearm are already calibrated.an Ortofon OM5E, the brand’s entry-level model, that you can replace with a higher quality cartridge such as the Ortofon 2M Red.The CNC machined chassis has absolutely no hollow spaces, avoiding unwanted vibrations. ProJect has built the T1 with a newly-designed sub-platter mounted into a main bearing, toleranced to 0.001mm, with hardened steel axle and brass bushing. 

 The Pro-Ject T1 turntable has many charms and one of them is its simplicity. If you are looking for a turntable that will enable you to discover or rediscover the simple pleasure of listening to LPs, then the Pro-Ject T1  turntable guarantees many hours of musical enjoyment.
