🎶 Pro-Ject Debut Carbon EVO: Audiophile Turntable with Carbon Fiber Tonearm, Speed Selection & Sumiko Rainier Cartridge (High Gloss White) Review

The first 2 hours of operation the device worked as advertised or better (with an additional acrylic disc). However, after the 3rd or 4th hour of operation, a background hum appeared. This is probably an anomaly, but get the Project High Power grounded power supply offered by Pro-Ject for dealers (probably not Revain) for free. Evo AC "plugs" are 2 pins with no ground.

The aesthetics of this turntable are great.… There is a diagram in the kit but no instructions on how to connect the back panel. is self-explanatory, except which end of the cinch cable goes where. One end has little yellow clips with the number one on it, but the other doesn't. One video I watched says it goes to the receiver, another says it goes to the player. end, so I went with the player, I do not know. Take the time to properly balance your arm and set up the counterweight. The sound is…

I've just started my vinyl journey and it's been a week and a half now. I love it! There are no complaints about the player itself, it's beautiful and works great. The only reason I took off the star was because the RCA cables that came with the kit were defective. One of the wires is causing what sounds like speaker hiss due to a bad ground, even though the ground wire is properly connected. Swapping the left and right cables redirected the noise to the other speaker, so it's definitely a…

Let me start by saying that I'm in no way a music lover, although I know that I like it when I hear it. I've owned direct drive turntables for 45 years, some of them last longer than others and cost twice what I paid for this one. This time I went for a Belted TT, I was already ready to order a more expensive one when I came across the Debut Carbon Evolution. Good choice! Pros: Easy to set up. Sounds great straight away (I think it will get better with time?) The Sumiko Rainier pickup is…

Recently found an old record and decided to buy a record player. I did a lot of research, first looking at used Technics 1200 models on ebay and newer "DJ setups" but who am I kidding, I don't mix. They just want to chill with a beer and listen to old school R&B, classic hip hop, 80's hits and a bit of Coltrane and Miles. Further research led me to Pro-Ject, U-Turn and Rega. I've never heard of these brands before but turns out they're worth checking out on a budget but you want to hear your…

I originally wanted to buy the Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB but they weren't in stock and I didn't want to wait two or three months for them to be back in stock. So I started researching and I'm glad I did. As an audiophile newbie to the world of vinyl, I was unaware of a few key points: a) Flashy features and gizmos don't always equate to quality. , and players for audiophiles. c) More features usually means sacrificing audio quality. d) Simplicity and plainness can mean that the quality lies…
