The X8 features a heavy, TPE-damped mass-filled platter precision-machined from a single block of aluminum and finely balanced. On the Xtension 9 and 10, you can't really play around with using different mats due to the glued vinyl platter. The X8 comes with a standard felt mat, which also allows you to experiment with different material mats in the future and tailor the sound to your taste.
A neodymium magnet reduces the load on the ceramic tip bearing. Given the massively heavy platter, this leads to a smoothly rotating base for your vinyl records and perfect speed stability.
The X8 inherits the solid MDF chassis and premium Pro-Ject 9cc EVO carbon tonearm from its larger siblings. The height-adjustable X8 features machined aluminum feet. The TPE damping technology in the feet effectively decouples the X8 from the surface it is placed on. The feet are a good choice for a more budget-oriented turntable, as they are quicker and easier to set up than the magnetic feet on the X9/10, and they also require less maintenance.
True balanced connection
We are launching a whole range of new "True Balanced Connection" components that have a balanced connection for your phono setup. The X8 is our first turntable to feature this new phono technology.
Turntables have a long history. Over time, many things have changed, not only from a technical perspective, but also from an environmental perspective. Wireless networks are ubiquitous, and countless electronic devices are making your home "smarter". This means that there are now a lot of additional electromagnetic fields that can interfere with your turntable's signal. This was simply not the case 30 years ago. To ensure the best possible connection to your phono preamplifier, Pro-ject has designed their "True Balanced Connection".
