Pro-Ject E1 Phono

Reducing Resonance

Removing or reducing vibration to a bare minimum is essential for achieving a clean sound from your vinyl. Pro-Ject accomplishes this in a variety of ways with the E1 Phono turntable, starting with the large and sleek plinth. The plinth of the E1 Phono is CNC-machined from composite fiber with no hollow spaces inside. On top of the plinth is the ABS polymer main platter, with integrated ridges to assist in the reduction of resonance. Even the damped DC motor helps by being placed to the side of the main platter, where the belt system drives a sub-platter underneath the main platter.

Convenient Operation

Playing your records is not complicated with the Pro-Ject E1 Phono. Simply place the record on the turntable, use the electronic speed switch to pick 33 1/3 or 45 rpm, and drop the needle. At the Pro-Ject factory, technicians have already pre-adjusted the tonearm's tracking force and anti-skate to ensure the Ortofon OM 5e cartridge stays in the groove to produce a dynamic sound.
