Time for Evolution. Pro-Ject has taken the Debut Carbon Evo – their most popular turntable design – and improved every aspect of it. The result is an incredibly refined product.

Description

The Pro-Ject Debut Carbon EVO features the proven 8.6‘‘ one piece Carbon tonearm design. In combination with the premium Ortofon 2M Red cartridge, the super stiff but lightweight tonearm delivers an insane sound quality with a convincing sound stage. A one-piece arm and headshell design prevents unwanted resonances and offers a solid physical bond to the cartridge.

The Debut Carbon EVO focuses on the core aspects that make a turntable sound great. Technically correct design – expert craftsmanship – handmade in the EU. This turntable is built to last you a lifetime. All Pro-Ject turntables come with a high-quality phono RCA cable supplied by the manufacturer. The Connect it E is a semi-balanced, low-capacitance cable, with superior shielding. Lower quality RCA cables often do not provide the ideal requirements for a clean phono signal transmission to the amplifier.

We used our technology and experience gained from the past and fit damping techniques of highend turntables into the Debut Carbon EVO. Looking at more advanced TPE damping and highmass sandwich constructions we were able to come up with a new motor and suspension solution for the Debut Carbon EVO. The Debut Carbon EVO does not just look great – it also always stands perfectly level. It uses 3 height adjustable heavy-duty metal feet to ensure a level positioning on every surface. And besides being able to effortlessly change replay speeds with the push of a button, the playback speed is electronically controlled with the utmost precision, which results in the most accurate and stable speeds.

The TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) technology now helps to damp the resonance completely and also increases the weight to 1,7 kg. Because the TPE is mounted to the inside of the platter‘s rim, the moving energy will also create a flywheel effect. The result is an even quieter and noiseless operation with less wow and flutter. You won’t find any button, switch or printing on the plinth to ensure the luxurious aesthetics. The speed control switch has been moved to the bottom of the plinth, to keep the clean look the Debut is known for.

The Debut Carbon EVO is not only timeless by offering traditional high-gloss black, white and red finishes or our fabled real-wood walnut veneer. Completely unique and trend-setting are the beautifully realized satin signature finishes in 5 different variations.

From the record, to your amplifier.
