Pro-Ject T1 EVO + OM10 - piano black

The Pro-Ject T1 EVO + OM10 turntable combines a premium manufacturing process and materials with an elegant, stylish design and a rich, vibrant sound. The 'EVO' suffix in the name signifies that this is an evolution of the earlier, acclaimed T1 model range. During the design of the EVO model, the focus was on both enhancing user convenience (by adding electronic speed switching) and improving sound quality with the pre-installed Ortofon OM10 cartridge (previously the OM5). No plastic parts were used in the production of the chassis, which is meticulously crafted with no internal hollow spaces. This effectively eliminates unwanted vibrations. The T1 EVO turntable features a heavy, zero-resonance glass platter. This design completely eliminates the resonances common in other budget turntables that use plastic, aluminium, or other lightweight materials. The specially chosen feet provide optimal isolation for the turntable from ambient vibrations and reduce the chance of acoustic feedback. The belt from the T1 EVO's motor drives a new, larger sub-platter, which is seated in an ultra-precise (0.001mm) main bearing with a hardened steel axle and brass bushing. This well-thought-out drive system is the foundation of the anti-resonance platform, ensuring the smooth and stable platter rotation necessary for the tonearm and stylus to track the groove accurately.

Precise tonearm and high-quality cartridge

The straight tonearm is based on proven Pro-Ject designs. An effective length of 8.6 inches, a rigid one-piece aluminium construction, and an excellent low-friction bearing are crucial for tracking accuracy. The headshell is integrated into the tonearm, and in addition to its elegant appearance, this design prevents vibrations, offering a significant improvement over commonly used detachable, glued, or otherwise mounted headshells. The T1 EVO turntable comes with a pre-installed, high-quality Ortofon OM10 MM cartridge with an elliptical diamond stylus, delivering a vibrant and precise Hi-Fi sound that is certainly not standard in this price category.

Plug & Play installation with no setup required

The T1 EVO turntable is delivered from the factory with the cartridge correctly aligned and the tracking force already set. After unpacking the turntable, simply place the drive belt on the sub-platter, position the glass platter with the felt mat, and attach the dust cover (all included). No further setup is required by the user. Simply connect the turntable to an amplifier. Also included is a super-shielded, low-capacitance, semi-symmetrical phono cable with RCA connectors, designed directly by Pro-Ject.
