Pro-Ject PerspeX Balanced

No, the PerspeX Balanced does not include a built-in phono preamp. You will need to connect it to an external phono stage or an amplifier with a dedicated phono input to play your records.

True Balanced transmission helps eliminate electromagnetic interference and noise that can be picked up along the signal path. By using a balanced connection, you get a cleaner, quieter signal from your cartridge to your preamp, which is particularly beneficial if you have long cable runs.

No, the PerspeX Balanced does not come with a dust cover. You may want to consider a custom acrylic cover or a dedicated turntable stand if you need to protect the unit from dust.

Yes, the turntable features electronic speed control. You can switch between 33 and 45 RPM speeds with the press of a button, so you don't have to manually move the belt.

Yes, it arrives with a moving coil cartridge already factory-mounted and pre-adjusted. While you will still need to perform basic setup steps like balancing the tonearm and setting the tracking force, the cartridge alignment is handled for you.

The Corian sub-chassis floats on magnetic fields rather than traditional springs. This design effectively decouples the platter and tonearm from the main plinth, significantly reducing vibrations that could otherwise color your sound.
