Pro-Ject Pick It MM Evo Turntable Cartridge Review: Combining Ortofon’s renowned split pole pin technology with Pro-Ject’s expert voicing, the Pick It MM Evo emerges as a superior high-dynamic 7 mV moving magnet cartridge that delivers MC-comparable flat frequency response and an exhilarating listening experience.
The Pick It MM Evo is crafted in Europe to a 1/2" mounting standard, weighing in at a mere 7.2 g—ideal for low to medium tonearm masses. Its body houses a robust DJ-grade cantilever, ensuring exceptional resilience alongside pristine performance. The special elliptical stylus tip (r/R 8/18 μm) glides effortlessly through record grooves, extracting subtle details while reducing distortion.
In listening tests, the Pick It MM Evo reveals an expansive soundstage, with crisply defined highs that sparkle without glare and a rich, controlled bass foundation. The split pole pins minimise crossover distortion, allowing micro-dynamics to shine—think delicate cymbal shimmer and nuanced vocal inflections. Low distortion and high dynamic range make percussion punchy and vocals lifelike.
If you’re running a turntable with a low to medium tonearm mass and seeking an upgrade from a basic MM cartridge, the Pick It MM Evo is an astute choice. Audiophiles who crave MC-level neutrality on an MM budget will appreciate its detailed imaging and effortless musicality. DJs after a sturdy, high-dynamic pickup will also find its construction reassuringly durable.
