Pro-Ject RPM 3 Carbon Turntable with Ortofon 2M-Silver Cartridge
Manual turntable with 10'' carbon tonearm. The entry into the RPM world
RPM 3 Carbon utilizes evolutionary enhancements to improve the performance of the RPM series: A low resonance chassis holds an inverted platter bearing with ceramic ball for further reduced rumble. An outboard 15V AC motor is smoothly driven using an ultra precision AC generator with DC power supply for further enhanced speed stability. A 10“ S-shaped tonearm tube is made from carbon fibre, aluminium and resin. Using a complex 3-step process with heat treatment and 100bar pressure, the arm tube rigidity is strenghtened, internal damping is maximized and resonances are reduced to a minimum. This makes the tonearm also suitable for MC cartridges. Additional features are a magnetic antiskating mechanism and a TPE-damped counterweight.
The RPM 3 Carbon comes with the Ortofon 2M-Silver cartridge. A super shielded, semi-symmetrical, low-capacitance Pro-Ject Connect it E phono cable is included.
Available in High-Gloss Red, High-Gloss Black or High-Gloss White. Cover-It RPM 1/3 Dust Cover Available. Sold Separately.
