Pro-Ject Debut Carbon EVO, Audiophile Turntable with Carbon Fiber tonearm, Electronic Speed Selection and pre-Mounted Sumiko Rainier Phono Cartridge (High Gloss Black)

This record player is a great starting point for the audiophile. The Debut line can be upgraded at your timeline but from the box it has great sound, great feet stabilizers, easy to setup and level out. An upgrade to the stylus made my baselines come alive. I was able to get a free upgrade at the time from Pro-Ject directly. Highly recommend that upgrade from the Rainier to Olympia stylus. Item came with great cables easy to use and hook up with some powered speakers from Kanto. Will continue to upgrade but this is a stable amazing platform the way it is. Save for this item, don't settle.

No le quedó claro que la tornamesa no era amplificada. Pero tienen gran calidad

I was originally set on purchasing the Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB but they were out of stock and I wasn't going to wait two or three months for them to come back in stock. So I started doing research and I'm glad I did. As an audiophile who is newer to the vinyl scene, I was unaware of some very key points: a) Flashy features and gizmos does not always mean quality b) There are three types of vinyl players out there: plain old cheap bare necessities, DJ players, and players meant for audiophiles. c) The more features usually means sacrifice in sound quality. d) Plain and simple might mean the quality is in the hidden elements of the vinyl player. This player is definitely meant for audiophiles and produces a wonderful sound quality. The isolation on this unit is impressive and is a vast improvement over the Pro-Ject DC; the carbon fiber tone arm is super lightweight but strong, the anti-skate system actually works, the motor is fully isolated from the player to prevent hums and interference and is carefully designed for speed moderation; fully manual tone arm operation is great for those who like to sit and absorb the music; the phono cabling provided is impressive quality; the cartridge included produces a wonderful rich sound. There is so much to like about this, especially for a first time vinyl player for me. I'm glad I spent the extra money as the sound is impressive. I've compared it to a few other units including some higher end Technics tables and was stunned at the clarity and richness of the sound this player produces.

Este es mi primer equipo tornamesa, el color amarillo no me gusto mucho, pensé que era más pálido y brillante, pero esta funcionando muy bien, si lo recomiendo, el instructivo es muy claro y preciso, pero lo mejor es apoyarse de algún video.

The turntable is very easy to set up. The 3 leg design really simplifies leveling and the premounted cartridge was very accurately aligned. The turntable is also easy to use - flip the on/speed switch, lift the tonearm, cue the arm, and release. The arm settles softly and accurately into the record groove. The Sumiko Rainier cartridge is superb - open, airy, clean, and precise! Perhaps a bit bright when compared with the Ortofon Blue/(old!) AR TT I’ve been using. (The old AR, unfortunately, finally succumbed to old age.) The Pro-Ject turntable/cartridge produces outstanding sound is an outstanding value. (This review is based on playing the TT through Conrad Johnson tube amp and preamp (again old but I’ve never been able to find a better sound and value) and Magnepan speakers.)
