Description

A belt drive turntable with no compromises that was developed in Europe and designed to give Pro-Ject sound at the lowest price possible.

A New Generation of Turntable

The first T-Line turntable from Pro-Ject Audio Systems, the T1, aims to provide authentic high-fidelity sound on a tight price. The long development process has assured that there has been no compromise in the sound performance when attaining such a low budget, boasting superior materials, fashionable appearance, and a rich, energetic sound. There are no plastic components in the chic CNC-machined plinth, which is available in High Gloss Black, Satin White, or Walnut finish.

It is also meticulously made to guarantee there are no hollow spaces inside, preventing unwelcome vibrations within the chassis. The glass platter is also a hefty, zero-resonance design, carrying this principle throughout the design. Avoiding the drawbacks of lighter-weight steel or plastic equivalents. The purpose-designed turntable feet also effectively isolate the T1 from background vibrations in your hi-fi system.

Features

  • Cartridge and tonem complete factory configuration for easy installation at home
  • Bead-blasted glass platter 8mm thick Premium mechanical components employed throughout for accurate, fluid record playback
  • Precision CNCed MDF Chassis with Factory-Mounted Ortofon OM5e Cartridge—No Plastic or Hollow Spaces!

At the end of the record, does the arm automatically return?

I appreciate you asking. Each manual turntable made by Pro-Ject. At the end of the record, Audio-semi-automatic Technica’s models can either lift or lift and return. 40 years old and a proud authorised Pro-Ject and Audio-Technica dealer is World Wide Stereo.

Just received mine today, and no matter what I do, the needle just keeps skipping across the record?

Sounds like the protection is on or that the needle isn’t properly secured. Ensure that the needle is snagged into the cartridge. Alternately, the tonearm weight needs to be increased by about 2 grammes. To make sure it’s set correctly, you need a cartridge scale to measure at the needle. To add and subtract, the weight must be shifted forward.

Can someone compare this to the Pro-ject Debut Carbon, which costs $399? For a start, there should be a distinct cartridge, but what else?

With the push of a button, you can easily switch between 33 and 45 on this one.Debut Carbon requires human input.

Will any Bluetooth receiver function with the Bluetooth?

Yes, all Bluetooth devices that support A2DP can be used (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile). This holds true for practically all products on the market.

What differences does this turntable have from the essential iii?

With its glass platter and subplatter, the T1 adopts a more contemporary strategy. Our Essential III has a heavier, resonance-insensitive MDF construction and a more conventional design with an outrunning belt.

According to a previous response, the BT range is 33 feet, or around one- third of long range capabilities. Is it intended to expand this range?

Our T1 has a great BT range. The turntable ought to be positioned close to its receiver in order to provide optimal transmission quality.

From the normal T1, I can hear needletalk. A second faster than the sound coming from the speakers, faint music plays. Is this standard?

I appreciate you asking. Tracking audibility will be undetectable or scarcely audible with the tonearm balanced and 2 gr. of vertical tracking pressure. Any audible lag depends on how much digital signal processing is done. 43 years old and a proud authorised Pro-Ject dealer, World Wide Stereo.

What would I need to purchase in order to get this going?

A soundbar with analogue input, a stereo system with loudspeakers, or active speakers are required. A phono preamp is additionally required to utilise the T1. You won’t require a phono preamp if you get the T1 Phono SB because it has one built in.
Will other cartridges work? I still have a few high-end items from the 1980s. certain, stanton
Of sure, I say. It has a typical Half-inch (1/2″) mount.Please use a gauge, such as a ruler, to measure the tracking force after changing the cartridge. Measure it with Pro-Ject E.

Does this function with the Edifier R1280TS? Or would I need to purchase a pre-amp unit in order for it to function?

No, you have to choose between this one and an additional external phono pre amp, such as Phono Box E, or the T1 Phono SB with built-in phono pre amp.

Does this work with an amplifier? Do the speakers accept regular cable connections?

You can connect it to a regular CD or video input if it includes a preamp. If your amplifier comes with a built-in preamp, you can use the provided (and, I assume, hardwired), RCA standard cord to connect straight to it.

For usage with headphones, does this have a tiny tip, ring, or sleeve stereo output female?

No headphones can be directly plugged into our T1. You require a stereo amplifier or hi-fi receiver with MM phono input, such as our Pro-Ject MaiA S2.

Is a power cord meant to be included with this? In my box, there is neither a component list nor a cord.

Yes, a power cord is required. look inside the box’s little card board.

Can the Pro-Ject T1 cartridge be changed?

The Pro-Ject T1 has a strong foundation that can be quickly enhanced and is simple to set up and operate. You can enjoy a more effective system with each step by, for example, swapping the felt mat for a cork one, upgrading the phono preamp over time, and eventually switching out the cartridge for a better model.

Are Pro-Ject turntables auto-stopping?

In Germany, these new turntables are being handcrafted. The Pro-Ject Automat turntable series features the most up-to-date, high-quality, user-friendly automatic turntable mechanism.
