Why you will love it

What is new

Pro-Ject lists four changes for the Debut EVO 2. The platter is TPE damped and anti-magnetic. The tonearm bearing block is a CNC-milled aluminium block that Pro-Ject says absorbs resonances coming from the cartridge. The counterweight has a TPE damping ring, as on Pro-Ject's high-end players. The cartridge is the new Pick it MM EVO.

The anti-skating mechanism adjusts the skating force as the stylus moves between the inner and outer grooves.

Carbon tonearm and Pick it MM EVO

The tonearm is an 8.6" one-piece carbon design. Pro-Ject describes it as super stiff but lightweight, with a CNC-milled aluminium bearing.

The Pick it MM EVO was developed with Ortofon in Denmark. It uses Ortofon's split pole pins, which Pro-Ject says give a flat frequency response comparable to MC cartridges.

Platter and drive

The 1.7 kg die-cast aluminium platter is reworked and precision balanced in an extra step. A TPE ring inside it damps resonance, which Pro-Ject says helps to minimise wow and flutter. The platter is anti-magnetic, so you can fit an MC cartridge.

An AC motor sits in a suspension system, with a power generator that creates a new sine wave for the motor. A belt decouples the motor from the sub-platter. Speed changes between 33 and 45 RPM with a rocker switch on the bottom of the turntable.

Connections and True Balanced upgrade

The RCA output box and power socket are built into the plinth. The gold-plated RCA sockets take the included Connect it Phono E cable, a semi-symmetrical cable with shielding connected at one end. Connect the yellow-marked end to the receiving device.

Because the outputs are RCA sockets, you can change the cable. Pro-Ject says its True Balanced Connection needs an MC cartridge or the Pick it PRO Balanced fitted to the turntable.

Finish

Pro-Ject groups the Debut EVO 2 finishes as High Gloss, Satin and Real Wood. This listing is Satin White.

  • Want a turntable with a carbon tonearm and a cartridge fitted

Build your system

The Debut EVO 2 has RCA outputs and no built-in phono preamp, so it needs a phono input on your amplifier or a phono preamp.

No. Pro-Ject lists RCA outputs only, so use a phono input or a separate phono preamp.

Can I use a moving-coil cartridge?

Pro-Ject says the platter is anti-magnetic so MC cartridges can be used.

What is True Balanced?

Pro-Ject's balanced connection between turntable and phono stage. It needs an MC cartridge or the Pick it PRO Balanced and a True Balanced cable.

Does it include a record puck?

No. The Record Puck E is sold separately.
