Key Features
The Pro-Ject X8 Turntable with Ortofon Quintet Blue Cartridge is a mass-loaded turntable positioned between the Pro-Ject X2 and X9 turntables. While still a high-end turntable at a high-end price point, X8 makes mass-loaded turntables more accessible than many other premium units, and with an Ortofon Quintet Blue Cartridge already factory set, you can get into the music in no time at all!
The magic of X8 lies in the True Balanced connection, which ensures a balanced and refined sound output, immersing you in the depths of your favourite vinyl records. Adding to its precision is the heavy, TPE-damped mass-loaded platter which guarantees accurate rotation and speed stability, delivering every note just as the artist intended. The neodymium magnet-supported inverted bearing reduces the load on the ceramic-tipped bearing, enhancing longevity while maintaining exceptional performance.
Ultimately, whether you are just stepping into the world of premium audio or have a seasoned ear for quality, the Pro-Ject X8 Turntable promises an unforgettable listening experience. Upgrade your soundscape with the Pro-Ject X8 Turntable and bring your vinyl collection to life.
