Description

The Project X1 B Turntable is a high-quality machine specifically built to play vinyl music to the ideal level of perfection. It has been made with precision engineering to deliver excellent sound quality. It is likely to be a top pick for music fans and vinyl enthusiasts.

Project X1 B Turntable

The X1 B is framed structurally by its oversized, heavyweight MDF structure. In the X1 B, the motor drives a purpose-made, heavy, non-resonant Acryl platter via a sub-platter drive system and a premium-grade main bearing for liquid-smooth rotation. This is the perfect platform to place your precious vinyl records, guaranteeing absolute reliability in its performance and sonic character.

Motor and Speeds

Inside the X1 B plinth, it houses a sophisticated DC/AC generator board which, combined with the convenient speed control board (for automatic switching between 33 and 45 RPM as well as additional 78 RPM support), delivers clean and stable power to the electronically regulated precision drive quiet-running motor. A new motor suspension system decouples the motor from the central plinth, further improving performance.

Improved Isolation

The turntable can be placed on three height-adjustable. Decoupling Alu/TPE sandwich feet for improved isolation from the surface below. An acrylic dust cover is also included for safety when not in use.

The Tonearm

The X1 B is also better than its predecessors thanks to the super-stiff, perfectly tempered Carbon/Alu sandwich construction tonearm, inspired by our superior The Classic turntable. This new 8.6” tonearm design is incredibly light and stiff, with improved resistance to external interference.

Finished as a one-piece with no resonance-inducing headshell. The X1 B tonearm can also be adjusted for accurate azimuth and VTA settings. Allowing advanced analogue audiophiles to fine-tune more than ever before. The tonearm features a TPE-damped counterweight, further reducing cartridge/tonearm resonances.

Project Pick-IT PRO Balanced Cartridge

Supplied as standard with a Pro-Ject Pick-IT PRO Balanced cartridge, perfectly delivering a highly dynamic, full sound, serving as the initial source to pursue your true balanced system. Manufactured by the cartridge experts at Ortofon but voiced by the design team at Pro-Ject, the Pick it PRO Balanced is ready to play within a few minutes of unboxing.

Advanced Design and Engineering

What makes the Project X1 B distinct is its sophisticated design and the quality of the materials used in its making, which includes sleek, high-quality parts. The platter is thick and completely leveled to the best point, ensuring efficient vibration damping and clean sound.

The tonearm, carefully crafted but not rough, tracks the records appropriately and thereby maintains a high level of sonic performance.
