Debut Pro
Featuring innovations inspired by the original Pro-Ject 1 turntable that launched our brand 30 years ago, the Debut Pro turntable is convincing in all respects – visually striking and audibly dazzling.
Note: The Record Puck PRO pictured is not included with this turntable. This can be purchased as an optional accessory (please refer to the related products section towards the bottom of this page).
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 aluminium 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.
