Key Features
The Pro-Ject T1 Turntable has been designed to provide a low-distortion experience while you enjoy your favourite records. The smart CNC-machined, plastic-free wooden plinth features no internal hollow spaces. Along with a modern belt drive setup, this means that chances for unwanted vibrations to enter and resonate through the delicate vinyl signal are limited, whilst still supporting 33 and 45 RPM speed changes. The belt drive motor turns a robust sub-platter, which supports the heavy, zero-resonance glass platter and spins on a 0.001mm main bearing with a stainless steel axle to further ensure rigidity.
To partner the turntable, this bundle lets you choose from a variety of high-fidelity stereo amplifiers. These amps come equipped with versatile feature sets and advanced audio technologies, priming them for speaker connectivity. When it comes to speaker options, you'll also be able to take your pick from esteemed brands such as Wharfedale, Q Acoustics, KEF, Monitor Audio, and more. With all the features that vinyl enthusiasts will ever need, the Pro-Ject E1 Turntable Hi-Fi System is a brilliant place to start your hi-fi journey.

With its machined plinth, high precision bearing, glass platter and newly-designed one-piece aluminium tonearm, it offers a wonderfully weighty and detailed sound – and even the Ortofon OM 5E MM cartridge is pre-installed, making it completely plug-and-play."
This is an invigorating listen that can get more out of your records than you might reasonably expect at this price point.
If you are looking for a starter turntable that will satisfy enough to stick with, this is an absolutely barnstorming choice and is a demonstration of Pro-Ject effortlessly upping its game in response to the competition.
The Pro-Ject T1 Turntable boasts a CNC-machined, low resonance plinth that features no internal hollow space and is also plastic-free. This reduces any unwanted vibrations within the chassis from impacting the sound output and is also incredibly sustainable. This highly dense chassis is elevated from the surface by turntable feet which further limit vibrations to offer enhanced sound performance. The belt drive setup effectively absorbs shock and lowers resonance to ensure smooth and reliable rotation. The belt drive also lets you manually change between 33 and 45 RPM speeds from record to record.
Propelling the sub-platter to create a fluid rotation, the motor turns the platter assembly on a low-friction 0.001mm main bearing, complete with brass brushing and a toughened stainless steel axle. The sub-platter acts as a sturdy foundation for the eight-millimetre glass platter, which in turn has been used to mitigate the disadvantages of resonance-sensitive plastic platters. The dense glass platter will keep your records in a stable position as they rotate, which ensures superior performance. The T1 also comes with a super-shielded phono cable, giving you the freedom to connect to a phono input or preamp of your choice.
Enjoy world-class record-tracking quality with the Ortofon OM 5E cartridge. Featuring an elliptical diamond stylus to optimise the sound of your record playback, the OM 5E has a tracking force range of 1.5-2.0g. This is pre-installed within the vibration-free headshell of the 8.6" aluminium, one-piece tonearm, which in turn has low-friction bearings to increase playback accuracy and a stylish, sleek look that will upscale your home decor. Using the adjustable hinges, you can also attach a dust cover to keep your records in pristine condition.
