30 years of Pro-Ject Audio Systems
Pro-Ject, one of the world's leading hi-fi stereo
companies, turns 30 years old in 2021 and can look
back on a long list of successes.
Since 1991 we have been offering high-quality hi-fi
products at a reasonable price for discerning music
lovers. We started with turntables because they are
the first choice for the most natural and affordab-
le music reproduction. Our main focus is always on
the materials and technology used. The shape and
design of our turntables are always dictated by the
functionality.
To this day, our designs have always been kept
functional and clean, so the first Pro-Ject product
was very simple but made from the highest quality
materials: MDF, steel, aluminium, glass, and carbon.
Plastic was not used for reasons of sound, durabili-
ty, and the love of the environment.
The result was a high-quality but simple-looking
product with great sound at a low price.
After the Debut Carbon EVO revolutionized the De-
but series in 2020, the Debut PRO raises the bar
even higher. We designed not only a new turntable,
but also a completely new cartridge. Now, for the
30th anniversary, we are again going back to our
roots.

PRODUCT INFORMATION
Pick it PRO
We have always been looking for the best price/per-
formance ratio, with perfect manufacturing quality
and „Made in Europe". For this reason, we decided
to work with Ortofon to develop a unique range of
cartridges. Thanks to the excellent manufacturing
skills of Ortofon we were able to produce a very
special cartridge: The Pick it PRO.
Cartridges are electromechanical transducers,
where mechanical energy is transformed into an
electrical signal. The real difference in sound hap-
pens here. The turntable itself should be as neutral
as possible. The colour and life of the music come
from the cartridge.
We, therefore, designed our new Pick it PRO that
delivers a more lively and robust sound and convin-
ces with its big dynamic range.
The actual sound of the cartridge depends on
how you combine the different components that
make up the cartridge: stylus, cantilever, cantilever
suspension, coil material, number of coil windings,
generator, etc...
You cannot judge the cartridge by looking at just one
specific part. Experience and the art of fine-tuning
make a cartridge unique and special. The perfect
combination of components is the key to achieve
the great, charismatic sound of the Pick it PRO.
Intensive research, development, and listening
tests have been necessary to gain the sound we
were looking for.
