ℹ Product Information

The Debut EVO 2 focuses on the core aspects that make a turntable sound great. Technically correct design – expert craftsmanship – handmade in the EU. This turntable is built to last you a lifetime!

What’s new?

Special Platter - TPE damped & anti -magnetic - The heavy aluminium platter uses a TPE ring inside to dampen unwanted resonances.

Bearing Block - The massive precise CNC milled alu tonearm bearing block absorbs all unwanted resonances coming from the cartridge.

Pick it MM EVO - Lively and robust sound - The new Pick it MM EVO cartridge tops off the new Debut EVO 2.

Counterweight - We have added a TPE damping ring to the counterweight as on our high-end players.

Take a closer look.

Correct Anti-Skating - Adaptive skating force: As the skating force varies between the inner and outer grooves of the vinyl record, our anti-skating mechanism adjusts accordingly.

Carbon fibre - Super stiff and lightweight: The new Debut EVO 2 features the a 8,6‘‘ one piece carbon tonearm design. The super stiff, but lightweight tonearm delivers an insane sound quality with a convincing sound stage.

Premium Bearing - Smooth movement: The precise CNC milled aluminium bearing offers very low friction and best stability.

The new Pick it MM EVO

The new Pick it MM EVO cartridge completes the Debut EVO 2 in all respects. It doesn‘t only complement the lightweight tonearm sound-wise, it also looks stunning on the turntable. Our phono specialists again teamed up with the cartridge experts at Ortofon from Denmark to work on this new cartridge. The cartridge is made from a unique combination of technologies. One of which is Ortofon‘s well known split pole pins. This enables it to have a flat frequency response, which is comparable to MC cartridges.

Backside beauty.

Pro-Ject love a clean look, not only on the topside. The new Debut EVO 2 is the first turntable where they included the RCA output box and the power socket into the plinth. The result speaks for itself.

Premium Connection

The gold plated RCA sockets on the Debut EVO 2 will always provide the best connection. The included high Connect it Phono E RCA uses quality core materials like a copper conductor for a signal transmission without losses. This cable is a semi-symmetrical type, which means that the shielding is only connected on one end. Therefore, the yellow marked side should always be connected to the receiving end.

Due to the RCA output sockets you can always change and upgrade the phono cable. This allows you to upgrade the Debut EVO 2 to our True Balanced technology. To use our True Balanced Connection, your Debut EVO 2 needs to be equipped with an MC cartridge or Pick it PRO Balanced.

Smooth drive.

Quality Motor - Sophisticated suspension: Pro-Ject's high quality AC motor is mounted into a proper suspension system which consistently reduces vibrations.

Clean Power - DC/AC power generator: The power generator creates a completely clean new sine wave for the motor. This guarantees very clean power which results in enhanced speed stability.

Belt Drive - Precision belt: The belt decouples the motor from the big sub platter. This prevents motor vibrations to travel to the needle.

33 / 45 RPM - Electronic speed change: The rocker switch on the bottom of the turntable allows you to change speeds with the push of only a single button.

A throne for your records.

The heavy 1,7 kg die-cast aluminium platter gets reworked and precision balanced in an extra step to obtain a perfect platter. The heavy aluminum platter has a ring made of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) on the inside that helps to dampen all resonances and thus minimize wow and flutter. The Debut EVO 2 platter is anti-magnetic, which allows you to use MC cartridges and upgrade to our True Balanced Connection technology. Our separately available Record Puck E provides an extra level of damping and stability, so it is the perfect add-on for your Debut EVO 2. The platter features a notch for the record label and together with our Record Puck E (available separately) the puck’s weight will press your record tightly against the platter.

pro-Ject - Debut EVO 2

sounds great. I bought the cork mat to go with it. The turntable plinth has a nice look and feel, I got the gloss black and wasn't disappointed over how smart it looks, the paint finish is excellent.

The clarity that the new stylus produces is phantastic. It's like having the orchestra in ones living room. Even older LPs reveal a lot of details. I prefer MM Styli and Ortofon landed a winner with this one.

This has really elevated my listening experience as the playback is flawless every time. The integration through the app though is where this streamer excels. The app is lightning fast. The sound can be a tad bright with certain types of music however with the countless amount of EQ settings that can be adjusted and saved (differently) for each and every input provides the ability to get my right sound each and every time. paired with the Advance Paris A10 amplifier its perfect!

The Black Pearl Power Cable is a pretty substantial piece of kit, superbly constructed - it beats the usual black kettle lead hands down on looks and construction. It is however, fairly stiff so you need to allow it to hang in graceful arcs - no sharp bends. Being heavy it also needs a little support so it doesn’t drag on sockets at either end of the cable. Has it made a difference in the sound? Well, I have made so many changes all at once that I cannot definitively say if it has or not, but I am pretty sure that those electrons are having a whale of a time running along the conductors in the cable, and this hobby is all about joy!

The Cinema 30 is the direct replacement for the SR8015, but it is chalk n cheese in terms of sound & build quality! The 120fps issue switching between the PS5 & XBox Series X is gone via the VS3003 8K switcher to the one 8K HDMI input - all HDMI inputs are 8K@ 60kHz or 4K 120kHz/fps! I bit the bullet and shelled out for the Bass Management & Control add-ons to DIRAC product @ $AUD951.54 and the results are astounding compared to the Audyssey room correction of the SR-8015. Currently using a 7.2.4 setup as it's not possible to do 7.4.6 yet. The Cinema 30 is a GREAT looking and sounding piece of hardware, handles DSD128 multichannel tracks via HDMI from the Reavon UBR-X200 effortlessly & DSD64 multichannel from the Eversolo DMP-A6 Masters edition also via HDMI. I wasn't expecting DSD128 to work but VERY happy that it does. I do miss the analogue multi-channel input that the SR-8015 & my older Yamaha units have, so that the DAC on the Reavon can do the conversion & output in analog. I am unable to compare via a shootout between the two units to determine if there are any audible differences to me. Well worth the cost of the upgrade❣️❣️ Many thanks to Vaughan for his quality, no-nonsense expert advice, throughout the long fault analysis & attempts to rectify of the 8015 by the authorized repairer and organizing the replacement unit. I purchased the SR-8015 elsewhere before I knew about the team @ The Audio Tailor & have never looked back.
