Audiophile vertical set-up including wall-mount option
The VT-E BT is based on Pro-Ject’s first ever vertical turntable, the VT-E, and its innovative design makes it something truly special to own. Not only can it be installed easily on a desktop or a wall for wireless audio transmission to your audio system, but the VT-E BT is also available in three high-gloss finishes to perfectly suit your own home environment.
The VT-E BT is based on the popular Elemental turntable design, which has won plaudits around the world for its great sound and affordable price. Like the Elemental, the VT-E has a pre-set tonearm and Ortofon OM 5E cartridge, so all you need to do to get spinning is install the belt and platter, then plug it into your turntable-ready hi-fi system. Turntable set-up does not need to be complicated or arduous, and VT-E BT proves that.
The VT-E BT platter and high-gloss plinth are made from acoustically neutral medium-density fibreboard, and the supplied record clamp ensures the record does not slip on the spindle during playback. When mounting on a desk, the supplied feet and back-support create a sturdy tripod that isolates well from external vibrations. Alternatively when mounting on a wall the supplied mounting kit ensures a reliable fixing to the wall’s surface.
The VT-E BT’s motor is the same proven design as found in other Pro-Ject turntables, and boasts a built-in AC generator for reliable speed stability and minimal noise. The tonearm is the same aluminium design found on the Elemental, but its specially-designed spring mechanism allows for accurate tracking of the record, even though it’s being played vertically.
The VT-E BT is finished with a built-in MM phono stage with optional wired or Bluetooth outputs. Using the supplied cables allows for a simple, traditional connection to a LINE or AUX input on your hi-fi system. Alternatively, the Bluetooth output auto-pairs to available Bluetooth receivers without any complicated set-up. The end-result is a true lifestyle turntable like nothing else, with the ultimate conveniences built-in, while still retaining real hi-fi principles.
The VT-E BT is available in gloss black, red or white finish, and is supplied with all required accessories.
