Walnut Burl Finishes
First unveiled at Munich High-End 2019, Pro-Ject Audio Systems high-end turntables are now available in a luxurious new finish. Crafted to an exceptionally high standard, the walnut burl veneer is available in a deep “high-gloss” finish, or in a lighter “satin” finish. The burl effect gives a visual appeal similar to marble and is truly unique in its presentation.

Power Supply Upgrades
Effective immediately, all new Pro-Ject Audio Systems high-end turntables purchased in the UK and Ireland from authorised retailers will be supplied with a free of charge linear power supply upgrade. The Power Box RS UNI TT (normally £399.00 SRP) is an adapted version of the company’s Power Box RS UNI, designed to deliver a clean and stable 15V DC mains signal.
Created to significantly enhance the motor performance, and therefore the end sound quality, this high-end power supply upgrade brings a marked improvement to high-end turntables in the X-Line, RPM-Line and Signature-Line of Pro-Ject turntables. The Power Box RS UNI TT consists of a massive toroidal transformer with shielding between the primary and secondary winding, which acts as an isolating transformer and avoids penetration of interferences from mains power into the audio component.
The built-in transformer has a much higher power reserve compared to standard power adapters. It has very low output impedance and in combination with large filtration capability it can easily manage all power needs.
