Pro-Ject Debut Carbon EVO 2 Turntable With Pick it EVO Cartridge Satin Walnut (DEMO)
Unprecedented Value Plus New Audiophile Features and
Technology
Pro-Ject's new Debut EVO 2 turntable delivers unprecedented
value at anywhere near its price. And it's bursting with audiophile features
and Pro-Ject technology, including a new TPE-damped die-cast aluminum platter,
an 8.6" carbon fiber tonearm, electronic speed control, TPE-damped feet,
and much more, including a dust cover.
The Debut EVO 2 features an advanced tonearm with premium
8.6" carbon fiber armtube and massive aluminum bearing block, like the
Pro-Ject Debut PRO's tonearm. The low-friction tonearm bearing guarantees
precise, stable, and accurate tracking. The carbon fiber tube is both highly
rigid and low in mass.
The one-piece armtube and headshell design prevents unwanted
resonance and offers an ideal physical pairing with the phono cartridge. This
superbly built tonearm delivers impressive sound quality characterized by
soundstaging with loads of detail.
The adaptive anti-skating mechanism adjusts for perfect
tracking as the skating force varies between the inner and outer grooves of a
vinyl record. The CNC-milled aluminum bearing block facilitates very low
friction and high rigidity, also contributing to the exceptional tracking.
TPE-Damped Die-Cast Platter
Advancing the design, Debut EVO 2 moves away from its
predecessor's steel platter and welcomes moving coil cartridges, should you
wish to upgrade, with its new, highly precise aluminum platter with
anti-resonance damping.
The 3.75 lb., 11.8"-diameter die-cast aluminum platter
is precision balanced with additional machining after casting. This facilitates
perfect platter rotation while playing records. The heavy aluminum platter also
adds a TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) damping ring and corresponding cutout on
the underside, muting any resonance created by the metal record platter and
contributing to the flywheel effect.
Height-Adjustable Damped Feet
Speaking of TPM-damping, the Debut EVO 2 stands on three
height-adjustable TPE-damped feet. These make for easy leveling and provide
great isolation. By using three feet instead of four, Pro-Ject is able to
increase stability on uneven surfaces while minimizing surface-contact.
Pick it MM EVO Phono Cartridge
The new Pro-Ject Pick it MM EVO moving magnet cartridge
completes the Debut EVO 2 in all respects. It complements the tonearm both
sonically and aesthetically. Pro-Ject's phono specialists teamed up with Danish
cartridge specialists to develop this design. It uses split-pole pins known for
achieving a flat frequency response that's typically only attainable with
moving coil designs.
High-Quality RCA/Ground Cables
Cables cannot add any information to a given signal.
Instead, they're responsible for allowing as much musical information as
possible through to the receiving device. This is why Pro-Ject includes its
Connect it Phono E RCA cable. Optimized for phono applications, it uses quality
metals and careful configuration to ensure lossless signal transmission.
Sophisticated DC/AC Generator
Pro-Ject turntables use switch-mode power supplies for good
reason. They take the unrefined AC power from your wall and convert it to DC.
That DC power is then fed to a DC/AC generator within the turntable, which in
turn powers the AC motor.
The advantage is that a completely new sine wave is created
by the generator, fully decoupling your turntable from the dirty AC power
coming from your outlet. This amounts to steady power being fed to the motor,
thereby enhancing speed stability.
