Pro-Ject Essential III

Perfect in every way. Just what I needed and the price is just right.

Pros:

Cons:

An elegant turntable. For years I have used a Pro-Ject I. The manufacturer of this new unit have retained all the great features of the old one---a superb tone arm with an excellent anti-skate device. Improvements include making the motor accessible on the top of the plinth, and then there is that elegant plinth itself. The turntable both looks and sounds beyond wonderful. With it, my 4000+ disc vinyl collection is in more than merely good hands.

Pros:

Cons:

Great turntable. Easy set-up and sound is amazing for this price. Very good cartridge included.

Pros: Good sound, easy set-up, price.

Cons: None

For the price, this a a fantastic turntable. I only have one thing that I would change and that is that the belt comes off very easily. If you are not careful when removing your record from the platter, it is very easy to accidentally bump the belt off. No big deal, but can be frustrating after a while.

Pros:

Cons:

The Pro-Ject Essential III seems like a great turntable so far. Though I was concerned that it might be difficult to set the tone arm up, I was pleasantly surprised that it was quite straightforward and simple. The sound is very good and some of the albums have a better sound with more detail than the same album mastered onto a CD. Very happy with the purchase and classy looking red finish too.

Pros: Excellent sound; easy straightforward set up.

Cons:

Awesome turntable. Minimal set-up, basically worked right out of the box. Sound is amazing for this price range. Mick an advisor was very helpful as well!!

Pros: Easy set-up and amazing sound

Cons:
