Pro-Ject - X2 B – Turntable
Introducing the Pro-Ject - X2 B – Turntable fitted with Ortofon Quintet Red
Elevate your vinyl listening experience with an iconic turntable, leveraging Pro-Ject's revolutionary True Balanced connection. The X2 B delivers an unmatched purity to your music, stripping away distortion and noise that other systems can’t avoid. Equipped with a moving coil cartridge, and a 5-pin mini XLR cable when connected to a Pro-Ject 'True Balanced' phono stage, your analogue audio will reach new levels of precision and quality. With balanced audio connections famously used in professional settings like recording studios and live concerts, your home audio will get the same noiseless, stable, interference-free signals. This means your music is free of any noise or interference picked up during transmission—a genuine game-changer for both audiophiles and casual listeners. The X2 B turntable, designed with both mini XRL and RCA outputs, aims to bring you to a true balanced audio setup—dynamics are amplified, noise is reduced, and signal-to-noise ratios are significantly improved. Unleash a new depth to your music, revealing elements you may previously have missed, with the finely tuned product features such as an adjustable Azimuth & VTA, 2kg Acrylic Platter, speed control at the touch of a button, and damped, adjustable height metal feet. Moreover, it comes furnished with an all-purpose Quintet Red Moving Coil Cartridge from Ortofon. The X2 B takes great pride in its craftsmanship—it’s not just a turntable made in Europe. It’s a testament to decades-long experience in turntable design and production since 1991. And we have elevated this tradition by incorporating our exclusive True Balanced Connections, promising to take your vinyl hobby and sound experience to a new zenith. Let the Pro-Ject - X2 B - Turntable (fitted with Ortofon Quintet Red), be your gateway to a genuinely high-end, awe-inspiring analogue sound experience; one that challenges the very boundaries of audio reproduction.
