Pro-Ject – Debut Line – Debut Carbon EVO – (2M RED) [PHONO PRE-AMP NEEDED] Turntable – HG Black

The color choices, which by the way get an 8 coat lacquer finish, offer up high gloss black, white and red; satin black, white, fir green, golden yellow, and steel blue; plus a beautiful satin walnut finish.

However, the technology in the Debut Carbon EVO is a list a mile long! Pro-Ject recently introduced a new line of turntables in the X series which are much more expensive than the Debut range. From the looks of it, they took a lot of the tech from the X1 and filtered it down into the new EVO. We were just super impressed with everything Pro-Ject packed into this new model.

The Debut Carbon EVO features Pro-Ject’s new designed motor suspension. Pro-Ject have improved the old design to consistently reduce the vibrations better than before.

Metal Feet – Damped & height adjustable

The new Debut Carbon Evo stands on three height adjustable damped aluminium feet to guarantee the perfect stand.

1.7 kg Platter – Heavy steel and TPE damped

Pro-Ject added a TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) ring on the inside of the platter. The result is an even quieter and noiseless operation with less wow and flutter.

33/45/78 RPM – High precision motor control

The rocker switch on the bottom of the turntable allows you to change speeds with the push of only a single button.

The Evolution

The Debut Carbon EVO 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!

Redesigned motor suspension

Pro-Ject have used their technology and experience gained from the past and fit damping techniques of highend turntables into the Debut Carbon EVO. Looking at more advanced TPE damping and highmass sandwich constructions Pro-Ject were able to come up with a new motor and suspension solution for the Debut Carbon EVO.

Anytime the perfect stand

Pro-Ject’s new Debut Carbon EVO does not just look great – it also always stands perfectly level. It uses 3 height adjustable heavy-duty metal feet to ensure a level positioning on every surface.

Controlled playback speeds

Besides being able to effortlessly change replay speeds with the push of a button, the playback speed is electronically controlled with the utmost precision, which results in the most accurate and stable speeds.

DAMPED FROM THE INSIDE

Pro-Jects previous metal platter was already heavier than anybody else‘s on the market, but metal platters inherently have a disadvantage: resonance.

Pro-Jects TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) technology now helps to damp the resonance completely and also increases the weight to 1,7 kg. Because the TPE is mounted to the inside of the platter‘s rim, the moving energy will also create a flywheel effect. The result is an even quieter and noiseless operation with less wow and flutter.

CLEAN LOOK & NEW COLOURS

You wont find any button, switch or printing on the plinth to ensure the luxurious aesthetics. The speed control switch has been moved to the bottom of the plinth, to keep the clean look the Debut is known for.

The Debut Carbon EVO is not only timeless by offering traditional high-gloss black, white and red finishes or Pro-Ject’s fabled real-wood walnut veneer. Completely new, unique and trend-setting are the beautifully realized satin signature finishes in 5 different variations.
