ProJect X8 Evolution Turntable - Gloss White

DESCRIPTION

Introducing the X8 Evolution Turntable

High End Mass Loaded Turntable with True Balanced Connection

The ProJect X8 Evolution takes a number of design cues from ProJect's high-end Xtension ( and Xtension 10 models and presents them at a more affordable price point.

Utilising ProJects "True Balanced Connection" the X8 is an outstanding entry into ProJects comprehensive line of state of the art turntables.

Mass-loaded platter
5.1kg heavy

The X8 offers a heavy, TPE damped mass-loaded platter which is lathed from a single aluminium block. Meanwhile underneath the platter, a neodymium magnet offers opposing force to decrease the load on the ceramic-tipped bearing, ensuring outstandingly consistent playback of your favourite LPs.

Inverted bearing
Stainless Steel Spindle

The inverted platter bearing is supported by a neodymium magnet that decreases the load on the ceramic tipped bearing.

Mass-loaded Chassis
Carbon tonearm

The X8 inherited the massive MDF chassis and the top-of-the-line Pro-Ject 9cc EVO carbon tonearm from its larger siblings.

Metal Feet
Damped & height adjustable

The three height adjustable damped aluminium feet guarantee the perfect stand & massively reduce risk of acoustical feedback.

33/45 RPM
Precision controlled

Switch speeds at the push of a button and enjoy stable and accurate speeds due to the built in electronic speed control.

True Balanced
Unleash the full power

The X8 is ready for our new True Balanced Connection. Single-ended RCA connections, quite literally, only use half of your cartridge's output. With one of our new True Balanced phono cables wired to a Phono Box S3 B, Phono Box DS3 B, Phono Box RS or RS2 you'll be able to hear your MC cartridge in its entirety!

Handmade in EU
Since 1991

Made in Europe by a turntable factory with decades of experience. Expert craftsmanship dwells deep within the X8.
