Featuring innovations inspired by the original Pro-Ject 1 turntable that launched the Pro-Ject brand 30 years ago, the Debut Pro turntable is convincing in all respects – visually striking and audibly dazzling.
Pre-fitted with the Pick It Pro
Developed in conjunction with award-winning cartridge experts, Ortofon, the Pick It Pro is the culmination of something we have been working on for some time. When listening to this cartridge you will hear a lively & robust sound that convinces with its wide dynamic range.
Intensive research, development, & listening have enabled us to achieve the exact sound we were looking for.
8.6" carbon-aluminium sandwich tonearm
This one-piece tonearm has been designed with two very distinct material layers, an inner aluminium tube enveloped in an ultralight carbon-fibre sheath.
The carbon-fibre layer lends the tonearm a high degree of rigidity, while the inner aluminium tube takes over the damping of the tonearm ensuring perfect tracking of the record groove.
VTA & azimuth adjustments
A completely flexible design, the robust nickel-plated aluminium tonearm allows you to adjust both the azimuth & the vertical tracking angle to your tastes by loosening two grub screws at its base.
Giving you the height pliancy your tonearm needs for use with different turntable mats, cartridges & accessories for a sound that suits you.
Nickel-plated aluminium components
The nickel-plated finish of the Debut Pro components have resulted in a hard, resistant surface that is not only beautiful to look at, but sustainable.
Avoiding plastic materials that continue to age over time, the precision CNC milled nickel-plated elements of the Debut Pro are modern, elegant & extremely hard wearing.
It's oh so quiet
Inhibiting motor vibrations from reaching the stylus, the Debut Pro houses a motor suspension system that is responsible for the perfect decoupling of the motor.
Thermoplastic elastomer suspends the motor above the plinth body, minimising audible wow & flutter in your playback.
The damped, fly-wheel platter
The 300mm, die-cast aluminum platter is precision balanced.
On the underside's inner-rim, a ring made of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) dampens all vibrations, delivering smooth, enjoyable & uninterrupted playback.
Adding extra mass to the outer rim of the platter also produces a stunning fly-wheel effect, creating the perfect transference of moving energy. The result is quiet operation with minimal wow & flutter.
Perfect timing
The Debut Pro accommodates for all types of listeners.
With a simple flick of the switch for everyday 33⅓ or 45 RPM listeners, accurate speed is guaranteed with the precision electronic speed control.
And for the more rare listeners of 78 RPM shellac records, a simple change over to the supplied round belt & an Ortofon 2M 78 stylus (sold separately) is all that is needed.
Height-adjustable feet
Three height-adjustable, nickel-plated aluminium feet ensure level positioning and accurate speed control on every surface.
Damped with TPE technical rubber, the adjustable feet on the Pro-Ject Debut Pro deliver the flexibility to fine tune the faithfulness of your playback.
