Classic look and
innovative high-end technology
This turntable makes use of traditional frame design which
was established by the famous turntable manufacturers
of the 50’s and 60’s. It uses a compact simple and elegant
form factor. The Classic incorporates a combination of
approved belt drive design using a low noise AC motor
with an ultra precision frequency DC-driven AC generator
for ultimate speed stability. Advanced technology is used
for decoupling and the completely new designed tonearm.
Chassis & subchassis
Like our famous Debut we wanted to create an easy to
use “plug & play” product, but with better sound due to
better isolation.
Thanks to the modern damping materials TPE* we are
able to design a very eective, subchassis construction.
Isolating the platter and tonearm from the resonances of
the motor and main plinth is the target.
Platter & sub-platter
The heavy aluminium main platter construction
utilises advanced thermo plastic elastomers (TPE*) for
optimising resonance behaviour. A drawback for most of
the old designs was the platter. Casted platters all have
been heavy (which is good for speed constancy and
low wow and utter) but suered very much from ring-
ing eects which again caused colouration of the sound.
The platter of The Classic is precisely machined out of a
special aluminium alloy again damped with TPE*, which
oers special damping abilities. The subplatter / main be-
aring construction we use is similar system as on the De-
but. It is made of hardened steel/ Bronze bushing/ Teon
bearing mirror, which re-sults in very smooth low noise
running smoothness of the bearing.

The main dierence to the Debut bearing are the
tolerances which are by factor 10 lower and therefore
more precise (0,005%). Especially the subplatter is a very
sophisticated part which is accurately machined and
guarantees a very good isolation between bearing noise
and the platter itself.

carbon/ aluminium tonearm tube
New carbon/aluminium tonearm
The radical new designed Classic tonearm is the
result of 25 years of experience in mechanical construc-
tion. The tonearm tube is made out of a sandwich of car-
bon and aluminium: carbon for stiness and speed, alu
for better damping. The cardan bearing assembly with
pin-point zircon bearing provides ultra low friction. A
new expensive Japanese base-ball-bearing allows a
better lead of the tonearm wire and increases the free
movement of the arm. The counterweight incorporates a
TPE* damper which allows us to reduce the amplitude of
the tonearm cartridge resonance frequency by 50%. As
typical for Pro-Ject and absolutely not standard at that
price range we oer also azimuth and VTA adjustment to
use a variety of cartridges. Dierent counterweight for
cartridges up to 25 grams are available as an option.
We supply as standard the Ortofon 2M Blue moving ma-
gnet cartridge. However, as the tonearm oers excellent
damping and exibility as well, its eective mass can be
called middle heavy, so it is also a very good partner for
MC cartridges.
The feet
As we did not want to risk that the customer always needs
perfect audiophile turntable supports, we decided to use
damping feet which are a very good compromise to suit
most of customer environments. For sure these feet are
height adjustable.
