Douglas HiFi Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Item: Pro-Ject 1xpression mkIII Carbon Classic Turntable w/Ortofon 2M Silver Cart Fitted Location: Douglas HiFi - Perth Price: $1099 Stereonet Special $1399 rrp w/2M Red Item Condition: Near Mint - Ex-Display - full warranty and all original packaging Reason for selling: Finished Model Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Direct Deposit, PayPal Extra Info: Pro-Ject have deservedly made quite a name for themselves in the world of good value, high performance turntables.... and here we have an end-of-line ex-display special on the 1xpression mkIII factory fitted with the Ortofon 2M SIlver MM Cartridge (special upgrade from the 2M Red). Following on from a prestigious series, the 1Xpression Carbon Classic is the 6th generation of the classic Pro-Ject 1, presented for the first time way back in 1991. The current version of our iconic turntable includes a totally new carbon tone-arm with spin-off EVO technology. The innovative new gimbal design features a resonance damping counterweight for the best performance with any cartridge. The belt drive uses a low noise, decoupled AC motor with a precision frequency DC-driven AC generator for exact speed stability. We used a complex main platter construction similar to our high-end Xtension models that just can't found elsewhere in this price range. Thermo plastic elastomers (TPE) are used in a sandwich construction with aluminium for optimised resonance behaviour. The platter bearing axle is made from low tolerance chrome plated stainless steel running on a Teflon bottom in a bronze bearing housing. The main plinth is made from low resonance MDF, which is decoupled from structure-born noise by special absorber feet using TPE technology. But enough about the sterling build quality. The sum of all these premium components is a sound quality that will make you forget everything else... And just listen. Belt drive system with synchronous motor Main platter bearing made from stainless steel runs in bronze bushing with Teflon bottom Heavy aluminium sandwich platter with TPE technology for superior resonance damping 8.6” carbon tonearm with Evo Kardan rings Resonance damping counterweight design Gold-plated RCA interconnect cable Special turntable feet for effective decoupling - significantly reduced risk of acoustic feedback Photos: WWW.DOUGLASHIFI.COM.AU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
