Project T2 Super Phono Turntable

Project T2 Super Phono Turntable

The Project T2 Super Phono Turntable is available for demonstration in our Hull store.

The T2 is a full-feature turntable, boasting a precision engineered aluminium tonearm with a Sumiko Rainier cartridge pre-mounted and a thick glass platter.

The T2 enters the ring as a new challenger in the midrange audio market. Boasting a host of audiophile design elements within its reassuringly sturdy construction, it remains true to the T-Line ethos by being effortlessly simple to set-up and use.

The T2 turntable is first identified by its elegant CNC-machined wood plinth that has been expanded in size to enhance stability and is available in three stylish finishes, including Gloss Black, Satin White, or Walnut. The core construction is free of plastic and has been carefully manufactured to ensure there are no hollow spaces inside, avoiding unwanted vibrations within the finished product. The purpose-chosen vibration absorbing feet effectively isolate the turntable from the surface on which it is placed.

Mounted inside the plinth is a high-performance belt drive system featuring an electronically regulated, precision-speed AC motor, attached to Pro-Ject’s finely-engineered T-Line sub-platter, which is inserted into a stainless-steel axle/brass-bushing main bearing. The sub-platter drives the new heavy, zero-resonance glass platter with absolute stability, ensuring an ideal playback surface for vinyl records. Speed change is handled by a rocker switch for convenient switching between 33 and 45rpm.

The tonearm on the T2 is a new 9” model featuring a one-piece aluminium tube and an improved low-friction gimble bearing assembly with spring-loaded anti-skate mechanism for total accuracy in use. Mounted with the award-winning Sumiko Rainier cartridge for great sound out of the box, the tonearm is also pre-set for downforce, so there is no need for any complicated set-up; you can get playing straight away!

The T2 features high-quality output terminals and is supplied with correctly engineered cables for direct connection to your preferred phono stage. However, the T2 Super Phono boasts a built-in dual-stage, split-passive moving magnet phono pre-amplifier. Rivalling the technology employed in many more expensive external phono stages, this built-in solution guarantees true hi-fi stereo sound, and ensures the signal that gets passed on to the amplifier is of the highest quality.

Compared to the T2 W, the T2 Super Phono’s phono stage uses the extra PCB board space to optimise and enhance the electrical layout for a superior analogue performance. The phono stage can also be bypassed if you wish to install an MC cartridge or make use of an external pre-amp as you progress on your analogue journey.
