Description

Harnessing the technology and experience gained from the past 30 years, at Pro-Ject Audio we have incorporated all of our learnings into the newly refined Debut Carbon Evo.

What you are about to experience is a thoughtfully elevated reimagining of the most popular manual turntable ever made.

Modern colour finishes

With the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Evo, we are introducing an all-new suite of colour tones to compliment contemporary tastes and furniture trends. With matte, satin and high-gloss finishes to give your new turntable the high-end look you have been looking for.

Speed control as standard

The Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Evo is compatible with all speed formats at the flick of a switch, this new 33 ⅓ & 45/78 RPM rocker-switch hides discreetly on the underside of the plinth. Ensuring a sleek look with the convenience of one-touch speed control.

Damped, adjustable metal feet.

3 height-adjustable, heavy-duty metal feet ensure level positioning and accurate speed control on every surface. Damped with TPE technical rubber, the adjustable feet on the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Evo deliver the flexibility to fine tune the faithfulness of your playback.

8.6" carbon fibre tonearm

The proven, masterfully designed 8.6‘‘ carbon tonearm is moulded as one piece. Transporting energy through the super stiff, but lightweight tonearm, this design produces perfectly timed music with minimal interference from outside influences.

Silent, flywheel effect platter

 

While the Debut Carbon's previous metal platter was already heavier and more accurate than any of it's competition, it inherently had a disadvantage: resonance.

Pro-Ject's TPE technical rubber technology now dampens this resonance completely. Increasing the weight of the platter to 1.7 kg, the TPE technical rubber material is mounted to the inside of the platter‘s outer rim, creating the perfect transference of moving energy - the flywheel effect. The result is an even quieter and noiseless operation with less wow and flutter.

Heavy-duty motor suspension

 

This kind of technology is usually reserved only for high-end turntables. The new motor suspension system of the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Evo combines TPE technical rubber damping with high-mass mounting plates to create a sturdy, resonance free foundation for the motor.

This combination of materials has been rigorously tested, ensuring even less noise transfer than previously available at this price-point.

Pre-fitted with a stunner

The Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Evo is conveniently pre-fitted as standard with the Danish-made Ortofon 2M Red cartridge. A real crowd pleaser, it works well with any genre of music and allows an easy upgrade path for the enthusiast-at-heart.
