Pro-Ject Debut III Turntable In Red with Ortofon OM-5 Cartridge

The Pro-Ject debut III is an excellent choice for the audiophile seeking a cost-effective vinyl playback solution. Pro-Ject has created something special with this turntable. The Pro-Ject Debut III uses an extremely quiet motor (decoupled from the plinth to reduce vibrations), a great tonearm with a silicone damped arm lift, and high purity copper from the headshell leads to the RCA ends. A felt-covered steel platter mates to a chrome plated stainless-steel axle running in a brass bearing housing for exceptional speed, stability and accuracy. The aluminum tonearm employs inverted hardened stainless-steel points for superior tracking with the supplied phono cartridge. The Debut III also includes a pre-installed Ortofon OM-5 MM cartridge, making this turntable a complete package. Everything is set-up for you at the factory, so once you bring one home you'll be spinning LPs within minutes. For less than you think, you can get those old LPs out of the closet, attic or basement and start having fun with analog again. ...Read more
