Pro-Ject RPM 5 SuperPack

Manual turntable with electronic speed change and fitted cartridge Pro-Ject Pick it MC1H

Turntable

 Chassis piano-lacquered dark grey  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 three height-adjustable rubber-damped aluminium cones.  The motor is decoupled from the plinth to reduce vibration transmission.  The resonance-optimised platter is a sandwich construction utilising the hub, an medium density fibre

platter, a cork mat (a standard felt mat is also supplied) and a screw-down record clamp.

 The platter's low-tolerance chrome-plated stainless-steel axle runs on a Teflon bearing plate in a sintered

bronze bearing housing.

 Central metal block optimises centre of gravity and damps main bearing.  Electronic speed change for 33 /45 r.p.m.. Switching to 78 r.p.m. is done manually.  Connection to the phono input of the amplifier can be made with connecting cables of your taste through the

gold plated phono sockets and earth screw. A standard cable is provided.

 External power supply avoids potential electro-mechanical interference.

Tonearm Pro-Ject 9c

 The turntable is supplied with Pro-Ject Pick it MC1H high output MC-cartridge fitted.  Conical carbon-fibre armtube avoids standing wave reflections.  Low mass aluminium headshell securely glued to armtube.  The inverted bearings consist of four hardened stainless steel points bearing in sapphire cushes.  Rings provide very solid arm bearing housings. The outside ring is open to avoid resonances.  Design of counterweight effectively counteracts unwanted resonances.  Counterweight shaft lowered to record level reduces cantilever forces and dynamic wow when playing

warped records.

 Solid armbase permits accurate height adjustment of armtube and VTA (vertical tracing angle).  Single-screw fixing of armtube allows rotation for easy adjustment of needle azimuth despite fixed headshell.  The straight armtube with an effective length of 9" reduces toe-in error.  Silicone-damped armlift can be adjusted to suit working height of the arm.  The internal wiring consists of flexible high-purity copper from the headshell right through to the gold-plated

phono sockets.
