Manual turntable with internal phono pre-amp and USB output
Elemental Phono USB: best buy turntable with maximum simplicity, outstanding sound quality & USB recording capability!
Pro-Ject has decided to go after the cheap plastic turntable market with an high quality alternative that comes complete with an Ortofon cartridge. Project Elemental Phono USB is a real “plug’n’play” in every way. No adjustment of counterweight and antiskating is needed, because both are pre-adjusted. This new straight tonearm is optimised for Ortofon OM cartridge series. All the buyer needs to do is remove it from the box, remove the bearing guard, locate the belt around the platter, remove the stylus guard and plug it into hifi system and computer.
The only plastic here is the stylus guard!
The hidden secret to the new table’s sonic success, is a central gravity mass point, made from an artificial stone which is placed directly underneath the platter bearing. It is capable to fully absorb unwanted rumble and motor vibration. This turntable appears to be pure simplicity itself, while maintaining high quality audio standards and vinyl recording capability.
