The Next Chapter
Pro-Ject have always had one purpose since establishment in 1991: bring HiFi Stereo music enjoyment to as many people as possible. With the A1 they added a completely new range to our portfolio: The AUTOMAT line. The technology allowed them to make automatic turntables without degrading the sound quality & make listening to vinyl easier than ever.
The automatic drive is still handmade in Germany by a traditional manufacture with a wealth of experience in making automatic turntables. The assembly is done in the Czech Republic by technicians with decade long experience. This technically reliable technology is what enables us to bring the Pro-Ject sound and philosophy to an entirely new audience, and, with it, affordable and accessible high-quality HiFi to people’s homes.
Ulm Aluminum Tonearm
The A1.2 features an 8.3” ultra-light-mass aluminum tonearm. Together with the Ortofon OM10, which fits this design principle perfectly, we get extraordinary fast response and detail in terms of transients and microdynamics. Tracking force and anti-skating are factory pre-adjusted which make the A1.2 plug & play ready within a few seconds. This makes it perfect for vinyl beginners and experienced listeners alike as the sound quality is carried by all the audiophile features the A1.2 has on offer.
Connect It E
To guarantee a perfect connection to your amp Pro-Ject uses a high-quality phono RCA cable. Pro-Ject Connect it E is a semi-balanced, low-capacitance cable, with superior shielding.
Phono Preamp
If you don't have a phono preamplifier in your current HiFi setup you will benefit of the A1.2s built-in one. If you want to use another phono preamp, you can easily switch it off.
33/45 RPM
No need to change the belt position. Easily change speed with the push of only a single button & listen to your favorite LPs as well as singles.
