X1 (Pick It S2 MM)
The classic turntable design reimagined. Based on the same concept as the P1, but improved in every aspect thanks to modern materials.
Azimuth & VTA - Fully adjustable
The X1 comes with fully adjustable Azimuth & VTA. It offers you the possibility to modify your X1 as you want it.
Metal Feet - Damped & height adjustable
The three height adjustable damped aluminium feet guarantee the perfect stand & massively reduce risk of acoustical feedback.
1.5 kg Platter - Resonance free acryl
The perfect platform to place your precious vinyl records, guaranteeing absolute reliability in its performance and sonic character.
33/45/78 RPM - High precision motor control
A sophisticated DC/AC generator board generates clean and stable power to drive the motor. Easily change speed with the push of only a single button.
New motor suspension
Stainless steel platter-bearing with soft brass bushing and teflon mirrors together with a new motor suspension for better decoupling of the motor vibrations to tonearm and chassis ensure lowest rumble and noise
8.6’' Carbon-Aluminium Tonearm
Finished as a one-piece, with no resonance-inducing headshell, the X1 is available with premounted high quality Pick it S2 MM cartridge. Its superstiff and perfectly damped construction provides a perfect tracking of the record groove
Pick it S2 MM - Moving-Magnet Cartridge
The Pro-Ject Pick it S2 MM is manufactured by the cartridge experts at Ortofon and voiced by the design team at Pro-Ject. It is equipped with a special elliptical stylus tip. It provides detailed sound reproduction and expansive imaging. It is a no-nonsense performer with fascinating musical resources. Attached to a strong cantilever, used in DJ cartridges, this cartridge will not just sound great, it is also very strong.
The cartridge is made from a unique combination of technologies. Among others Ortofon‘s well known split pole pins. This enables it to have a flat frequency response, which compares with MC cartridges. The superior treble output provides a dynamic and warm sound.
Inspired by the diamond found on the stylus, the Pick it S2 MM is a beautiful design featuring a new and unique semi-transparent grey color. It goes perfectly with most Pro-Ject record players.
The Tonearm - 8.6’’ Carbon-Aluminium Tonearm
Finished as a one-piece, with no resonance-inducing headshell, the X1 can also be set for azimuth and VTA adjustment. The tonearm is then supplied with a TPE-damped counterweight.
Phono Cable - Semi-balanced RCA cable
To guarantee a perfect connection to your amp you will find a high-quality phono RCA cable in the box. Pro-Ject’s Connect it E is a semi-balanced, low-capacitance cable, with superior shielding.
