Pro-Ject Unveils Elvis Special Edition Turntable

On the technical front, this model is equipped to meet high-fidelity standards. At its core lies a 9-inch aluminum tonearm, factory-fitted with the well-regarded Sumiko Rainier cartridge. The platter is crafted from 10mm-thick glass, weighing 1.7 kilograms, ensuring rotational stability and vibration resistance. A belt-drive system with an integrated sub-platter maintains precision, and an electronic speed selector allows seamless switching between 33 1/3 and 45 RPM at the press of a button. Additional measures to enhance sound isolation include damped feet that minimize vibrations from the supporting surface.

The package is rounded out with a dust cover, a dedicated phono cable for easy integration with preamps or amplifiers, and an external power supply. With this combination of aesthetic appeal and meticulous engineering, the Pro-Ject Elvis Limited Special Edition is more than just a collectible; it’s a fully functioning piece of audio art designed to deliver exceptional vinyl playback.

While the exact release date has yet to be confirmed, the retail price in Europe is set at €1,399. For enthusiasts and collectors alike, this turntable celebrates both the timeless influence of Elvis Presley and Pro-Ject’s commitment to high-quality vinyl listening experiences.
