To celebrate the 30th anniversary of one of the world’s leading hi-fi stereo companies, Pro-Ject have introduced a new addition to the Debut Line: the Debut Pro. This turntable is the most audiophilic Debut yet. Pro-Ject have not only produced a new turntable but also a completely new cartridge, the Pick it Pro.


Pick it Pro Cartridge

Pro-Ject have always been looking for the best price to performance ratio, with perfect manufacturing quality and their ‘Made in Europe’ design. For the release of this commemorative turntable, Pro-Ject teamed up with Ortofon to develop a unique range of cartridges. With thanks to their excellent manufacturing skill, they were able to produce a very special cartridge: The Pick it PRO. This cartridge was designed to deliver a more lively and robust sound which encourages its big dynamic range.

8.6” One-Piece Carbon-Aluminium Tonearm

The Debut PRO features a one-piece carbon-aluminium sandwich tonearm. The carbon layer gives the tonearm a high degree of rigidity, while the inner aluminium tube takes over the damping of the tonearm. This super stiff and uniquely dampened tonearm construction ensures perfect tracking of the record groove.

Adjustable VTA and Azimuth

With the new tonearm of the Debut PRO, both the azimuth and the vertical tracking angle (VTA) can be set. The tonearm height can be continuously adjusted by loosening the two grub screws. These settings of the Debut PRO give you the option of adapting the tonearm to height changes allowing the use of different turntable mats or other cartridges to always achieve the best sound quality.

Nickel-Plated Aluminium Bearing Block

The nickel finish of the aluminium components results in a hard and resistant surface. This process enables Pro-Ject to produce high-quality and sustainable components and avoid plastics and similar materials that continue to age over time. The precision CNC milled parts are optically and perfectly coordinated leading the Debut PRO to its modern simple, elegant and unprecedented design.

Aluminium Dampened Platter

The die-cast aluminium platter gets reworked and precision balanced in an extra step to obtain a perfect platter. The heavy aluminium platter has a ring made of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) on the inside that helps to dampen all resonances that minimises wow and flutter.
