Designed to take the performance of the award-winning Classic Series to a new level, Pro-Ject’s ‘The Classic EVO’ adds advanced technology from Pro-ject's best turntables to an iconic, vintage-inspired design. The two-piece plinth may bring back memories of turntables of yore, but make no mistake – under the hood it’s a thoroughly modern machine. Where suspended turntables of years past used fussy springs to reduce vibration, The Classic EVO uses TPE bushings (thermoplastic elastomer) to isolate the motor and tonearm. The tonearm also got the royal treatment. The Classic EVO features a 9″ arm with the bearings used in their 9, 10 and 12cc Evolution tonearms for smooth, precise tracking of your records. The platter (internally damped) and sub-platter are made from CNC-machined aluminum to provide more rotational mass resulting in impeccable vibration resistance and enhanced speed stability.
