The Pro-Ject The Classic Reference turntable is available for demonstration in our Hull store by request.
The Pro-Ject The Classic Reference represents the pinnacle of analogue playback. By merging timeless aesthetics with state-of-the-art engineering, this turntable sets a new benchmark for vinyl enthusiasts. Drawing inspiration from the acclaimed Classic EVO and the prestigious Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra turntable, it delivers unrivalled musical precision.
At the heart of the Classic Reference is the EVO 9 AS HG S-Shape Tonearm, engineered for absolute accuracy. Using ABEC 7 ball-race bearings with a fully aluminium structure, the tonearm ensures minimal resonance and ultra-smooth movement—delivering uncompromising detail in every note.
The polished aluminium main platter incorporates advanced TPE damping technology, adding mass while eliminating unwanted vibrations. Unlike conventional cast platters, this precision-machined alloy platter guarantees neutral playback, so your vinyl collection sounds exactly as intended.
The floating TPE-damped sub-chassis effectively separates the platter and tonearm from motor vibrations. Combined with adjustable isolation feet, this system produces outstanding clarity, balanced sound staging, and deep, controlled bass.
With both RCA and True Balanced XLR outputs, the Classic Reference offers flexibility for any setup. Balanced connections ensure a studio-grade, interference-free signal, reducing noise for the purest analogue reproduction.
Powered by a DC-driven AC motor with a clean sine wave generator, the turntable achieves rock-solid speed stability at 33, 45, and 78 RPM. This ensures flawless playback across your entire vinyl collection—from classical performances to modern pressings.
The Pro-Ject Classic Reference isn’t just a turntable—it’s a statement of craftsmanship and sonic excellence. Combining traditional design with innovative damping, tonearm precision, and balanced audio technology, it redefines what’s possible in vinyl playback.
