Features

Low-Noise Design: For the drive system, where many turntables may use un-regulated DC motors with wide speed fluctuations, the T1 Evo BT features Pro-Ject's proven system of an electronically regulated, precision-speed AC motor. The result is a low-noise, stable drive system for the turntable. The precision-speed AC motor drives a belt-system, attached to a newly designed sub-platter, which is mounted into an ultra-precise 0.001mm main bearing with a hardened steel axle and brass bushing. Alongside this chosen motor system, the T1 Evo BT is able to ensure a smooth, anti-resonant rotational platform for the tonearm and cartridge to ride across.

One-Piece Tonearm: The tonearm on the T1 Evo BT is a new model, based on previous Pro-Ject designs. With its straight, 8.6" effective length and stiff aluminum construction, this one-piece tonearm also features low-friction bearings for absolute accuracy in use. Besides the clean and stylish looks, the integrated headshell won't cause any additional vibrations either, and is a big improvement over many other detachable, screwed-on or glued-on headshells.

Ortofon OM10 MM Cartridge: The Pro-Ject T1 Evo BT comes supplied with an Ortofon OM10 Moving Magnet (MM) cartridge, featuring an elliptical diamond stylus tip for true high-fidelity playback from your vinyl record collection. The cartridge is pre-installed and aligned with the tracking force set at the factory and the anti-skating built-in, sparing you the hardest part of turntable setup.

Zero-Resonance Construction: The stylish CNC-machined plinth features no plastic parts and is carefully manufactured to ensure there are no hollow spaces inside, therefore avoiding unwanted vibrations within the chassis. Carrying this philosophy through the design, the included 8mm glass platter is also a heavy, zero-resonance design (avoiding the flaws of plastic or lightweight steel alternatives). Finally, the purpose-chosen turntable feet also do a good job of isolating the T1 Evo BT from ambient vibrations around your hi-fi system.

Selectable Phono Preamp with Stereo RCA Outputs: The Pro-Ject T1 Evo BT features a built-in, selectable preamp phono MM stage that allows you to connect the turntable to an integrated amp or stereo receiver's line-level or Phono MM input. The Pro-Ject T2 Super Phono is outfitted with a set of stereo RCA outputs and comes with Pro-Ject's Connect-it-E high-quality stereo RCA cable to connect the turntable to your integrated amplifier or receiver. The Pro-Ject Connect-it-E cable is a semi-balanced, low-capacitance cable, with superior shielding. However, you can always upgrade to an even higher quality cable if preferred. A stereo minijack-to-RCA adapter is also included in case you have a powered speaker with a 3.5mm Aux input.

Note: There is a switch on the back of turntable that allows you to switch from Phono to Line out.

Built-In Bluetooth with aptX HD: In addition to the selectable Phono preamp and wired stereo RCA output, the T1 Evo BT features built-in Bluetooth with support for wireless audio streaming (A2DP) amd aptX HD. You'll be able to wirelessly stream your vinyl record's audio to a Bluetooth-enalbed speaker, headphone, or home audio receiver. The T1 Evo BT turntable can only be wireleslly paired and connected with one playback device (speaker, headphone, receiver, etc.) at a time. Qualcomm's aptx HD is designed to deliver 24-bit wireless HD audio wirelessly over Bluetooth with higher signal-to-noise ratio, and lower total harmonic distortion (THD) - so you hear even the smallest details in your music. The turntable has a wireless Bluetooth range of approximatley 33' (10m).

  • There is a Bluetooth Transmitter switch on the side of the turntable that can be turned On or Off.
  • You cannot use the wired stereo RCA output and the wireless Bluetooth output at the same time.

Dust Cover: The Pro-Ject T1 Evo BT comes with a hinged, clear plastic dust cover to protect against dust, dirt, and debris.

  • Dimensions with Dust Cover Closed: 16.5625" (w) x 4.3125" (h) x 13.5625" (d)
  • Dimensions with Dust Cover Open: 16.5625" (w) x 14.375" (h) x 15.625" (d)

AC Power Adapter: The included AC power adapter plugs into the back of the turntable and into an AC power wall outlet or surge protector/line-conditioner (sold separately).
