Pro-Ject T1 EVO – do you focus on sound quality?

If you are looking for a turntable where sound quality, precision and solid construction matter more than unnecessary features, the Pro-Ject T1 EVO Basic is an obvious choice. It is designed for both new vinyl enthusiasts and experienced listeners who already have a favorite phono preamp or an amplifier with a built-in phono input. With the classic phono output, you can choose the preamplification that best suits your system and your sound preferences.

The Pro-Ject T1 EVO is built with a CNC-milled wooden plinth without plastic parts and without cavities. The construction reduces unwanted vibrations that could otherwise affect the cartridge and degrade sound quality. The result is a cleaner, more precise and detailed reproduction of the music.

Resonance-free glass platter provides stable playback

The heavy glass platter is designed to minimize resonances and ensure stable rotation. Compared with lighter platters made of plastic or thin steel, glass reduces the risk of vibrations that can affect playback. The stable speed gives the cartridge optimal conditions for following the record groove, resulting in more dynamic and detailed sound.

Precise one-piece aluminum tonearm

The 8.6" tonearm is made from a single piece of aluminum without joints. This reduces unwanted movement and provides more precise tracking of the record groove. The low-friction bearings ensure smooth movement across the record, while the integrated headshell further limits vibrations. This gives the cartridge the best conditions for reproducing the details of the music with high precision.

Advanced drive system with stable speed

The belt-driven motor works together with a newly developed sub-platter and an ultra-precise main bearing with a tolerance of just 0.001 mm. The high precision ensures a consistent rotational speed, which is crucial for correct timing, pitch and natural music reproduction.

Ortofon OM10 cartridge with detailed sound

The Pro-Ject T1 EVO comes with a factory-fitted Ortofon OM10 Moving Magnet cartridge. The elliptical diamond stylus has a larger contact surface with the record groove than a conical stylus and can therefore pick up more detail from the recording. The result is a nuanced sound with good resolution and precise reproduction of both vocals and instruments.

Shielded phono cables protect the signal

The included Pro-Ject Connect it E phono cables are developed specifically for turntables. The cables are semi-balanced and highly shielded, which helps protect the sensitive signal from the cartridge against electrical noise on its way to the amplifier.

Made in Europe with a focus on quality

The Pro-Ject T1 EVO is manufactured in Europe by specialists with many years of experience in turntables. The combination of precision manufacturing, proven materials and careful quality control ensures a turntable with high build quality and a long service life.

A turntable with a true hi-fi experience

The Pro-Ject T1 EVO is developed for those who want a turntable where construction, choice of materials and sound quality are given high priority. Whether you are buying your first turntable or upgrading your existing system, you get a well-thought-out solution that delivers an engaging and detailed vinyl experience for many years to come.
