Product information
Pro-Ject Debut III/Phono USB
Manual turntable with fitted cartridge
Ortofon OM 5E and
integrated MM phono pre-amplifier with
A/D converter and USB output
Turntable
Chassis available in silver or matt black
A quiet running AC motor with a two-step metal pulley drives the hub and platter via a flat-ground belt.
The medium density fibre plinth stands on four feet which act as shock absorbers.
The motor is decoupled from the plinth to reduce vibration transmission.
The platter is a sandwich construction utilising the hub, a sheet-steel platter weighing 1,3Kg and a felt mat.
The platter's low-tolerance chrome-plated stainless-steel axle runs on a polished ball bearing in a brass
bearing housing.
External power supply avoids potential electro-mechanical interference.
Tonearm Pro-Ject 8.6
The turntable is supplied with Ortofon OM 5E MM-cartridge fitted.
Uniform material: the tonearm tube and bearing housing are constructed from aluminium.
The headshell and undamped armtube are fashioned from a single piece.
The inverted horizontal bearings consist of two hardened stainless steel points bearing in sapphire cushes.
Flexible counterweight shaft avoids vibration at undesirable frequencies.
Single-screw fixing of armtube allows rotation for easy adjustment of needle azimuth despite fixed headshell.
The straight armtube with an effective length of 8,6" reduces toe-in error.
The internal wiring consists of high-grade flexible copper from the headshell right through to the connection cable.
The internal wiring consists of flexible high-purity copper from the headshell right through to the gold-plated
phono sockets.
A supplied 3,5 mm connector can be used to connect your Pro-Ject Debut III/ Phono to any line level/auxiliary
input (Computer, Midi System, Mixer etc.).
