Mistelbach, Austria – September 24th, 2024 – Pro-Ject Audio Systems is proud to announce the latest edition to the T Series of turntables, the T1 EVO, T1 EVO Phono & T1 EVO BT. Improvements include a classic groove-slayer in the Ortofon OM10 MM phono cartridge, a larger Debut-sized sub-platter as well as electronic speed change for all 3 models. The precision-machined chassis remains free of resonant hollow spaces. The high-mass tempered glass record platter is anti-resonant & great for rotational stability (not to mention its alluring visual appeal!). As always, you can count on a top-notch tonearm – the T1 EVO uses the tried & true 8.6” 1-piece aluminum armtube with high-quality bearings to tie everything together sonically. Most importantly, there are 3 models that cover varying needs for system integration & convenience. The T1 EVO is a conventional turntable (pick your own phono preamp!). The T1 EVO Phono of course has a built-in MM phono preamp that’s also defeatable, while the T1 EVO BT has a built-in phono preamp that also sends Bluetooth for wireless enjoyment of vinyl.
T1 EVO turntables will begin shipping in the U.S. market late October, retailing for $449 (T1 EVO), $499 (T1 EVO Phono) & $599 (T1 EVO BT) USD
