Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Turntable – Black

Here we have a nice example in the gloss black finish of this award-winning turntable from Austrian turntable specialists Pro-Ject. Our Debut Carbon is in very good condition with some marking on the lid – please see photographs. It is supplied professionally packaged along with manual, interconnects, and of course our 3-month warranty. Our sample is fitted with a Ortofon 2M Red cartridge but please note we have no knowledge of the exact amount of use and wear of the cartridge and therefore it is not covered in the warranty.
Pro-Ject Say….
The first Debut turntable, introduced in the late 1990s, was a revolution for the hi-fi industry. For the first time after the arrival of Compact Disc and the assumed demise of vinyl records, an analogue product re-emerged in the “mass market” – something all music lovers could afford.
The new DEBUT Carbon has been designed to set new standards in this category for the coming decade – perfectly timed as analogue today is again a respected source, while the demand for good turntables is growing again!
The most obvious improvement is the inclusion of a CARBON TUBE for the tonearm, which increases stiffness and decreases unwanted resonance. This material normally is extensively used in high-end tonearms, but – because of cost reasons – was never used in products at lower price levels. Together with other improvements like an increase in platter size and weight to realize even smoother rotation and new design in motor suspension, the overall sound quality is greatly improved.
