Description
Pro-Ject X8 Evolution Manual Belt-Drive Turntable
MASSIVE 5.1KG PLATTER
The X8 offers a heavy, TPE damped mass-loaded platter precision lathed from a single aluminum block and finely balanced. On the Xtension 9 and 10 you cannot really play around with using different mats due to the glued on vinyl top. The X8 comes with a standard felt mat, also allowing you to experiment with different material mats in the future and tailor the sound to your taste.
CERAMIC TIPPED, MAGNETICALLY SUPPORTED INVERTED BEARING
A neodymium magnet decreases the load on the ceramic tipped bearing. Considering the massively heavy platter, this leads to a smoothly rotating base for your vinyl records and perfect speed stability.
