Pro-Ject A1
Activation
The A1 has a fully automatic start/stop, with the automatic system completely decoupled during the entire running time of the plate. The fully mechanical automatic is activated when you press Start, and the tone arm is automatically moved to the record’s guide groove. Once played, the automatic is disengaged and does not affect the playback quality.
ULM aluminum tonearm
The A1 features an ultra-lightweight 8.3-inch aluminum tonearm. Together with the Ortofon OM10, which perfectly matches this design principle, we get an exceptionally fast response and detail in terms of transients and microdynamics. Tracking force and anti-skating are preset at the factory, making the A1 plug & play ready for use within seconds. This makes it perfect for vinyl beginners and experienced listeners alike, as the sound quality is carried by all the audiophile features the A1 has to offer.
Connect it E – Semi-balanced RCA cable
To ensure a perfect connection to your amplifier, we use a high quality phono RCA cable. Our Connect it E is a semi-balanced cable with low capacitance and excellent shielding.
Phono preamp – Built-in switchable preamp
If you don’t have a phono preamp in your current HiFi setup, you’ll benefit from the A1’s built-in one. If you want to use another phono preamplifier, you can simply turn it off.
33/45 rpm – Ready for singles & LPs
The belt position does not need to be changed. Easily change the speed with just one touch of a button and listen to your favorite LPs as well as singles.
Automat Line – Handmade in Germany
