Pro-Ject 2Xperience Classic

Manual turntable. With fitted cartridge Ortofon 2M Red

Turntable
- Available finishes. Mahogany or olive veneer and piano-lacquered black  
- A quiet running AC motor with a two-step pulley drives the platter's outside edge via a belt.  
- The transparent acrylic plinth stands on three height-adjustable Sorbothane®-damped aluminium cones.  
- The motor is decoupled from the plinth to reduce vibration transmission.  
- The resonance-optimised platter is a sandwich construction utilising the hub, a fine-balanced medium density fibre platter weighing 2Kg, a 4mm thick flat-ground layer of vinyl and a screw-down metal record clamp.  
- The platter's low-tolerance chrome-plated stainless-steel axle runs on a Teflon bearing plate in a sintered bronze bearing housing.  
- Connection to the phono input of the amplifier can be made with connecting cables of your taste through the gold plated phono sockets and earth screw. A standard cable is provided.  
- External power supply avoids potential electro-mechanical interference.
- Dust cover included

Tonearm 9cc
- As an optional extra, the turntable is supplied with Ortofon 2M Red MM-cartridge fitted.
- The headshell and armtube are fashioned from a single piece of carbon-fibre.
- Conical armtube avoids standing wave reflections.
- Inverted tonearm bearing comprises four hardened stainless tips in ABEC7 spec ballraces.
- Rings provide very solid arm bearing housings. The outside ring is open to avoid resonances.
- Design of counterweight effectively counteracts unwanted resonances.
- The counterweight supplied is suitable for cartridges weighing between 6 - 10g. Alternative counterweights for cartridges weighing between 11 - 15g, 8 - 11g or 5 - 8g are available as an accessory part.
- Counterweight shaft lowered to record level reduces cantilever forces and dynamic wow when playing warped records.
- Solid armbase permits accurate height adjustment of armtube and VTA (vertical tracing angle).
- Single-screw fixing of armtube allows rotation for easy adjustment of needle azimuth despite fixed headshell.
- Silicone-damped armlift can be adjusted to suit working height of the arm.
- The internal wiring consists of flexible high-purity copper from the headshell right through to the gold-plated phono sockets.
