- The technology highlights of the Xtension series at an even better price
The X8 combines the sonic advantages of a sub-chassis and mass-loaded turntable and offers a low-cost entry into mass-loaded technology and the True Balanced connection variant. The platter, weighing over five kilograms, is precision-turned from a single piece of aluminium and is internally immobilised with a ring of TPE*. An inverted platter bearing with ceramic running surfaces ensures absolutely precise and controlled guidance. The magnetic support with mutually repelling neodymium magnets relieves the bearing of a large part of the platter weight. This significantly improves the smooth running of the bearing.
The chassis is made of solid MDF. It stands on aluminium-turned, TPE-damped feet with height adjustment. This allows perfect alignment on and optimal decoupling from any surface.
The Pro-Ject X8 is also available as a SuperPack, which comes with a factory-mounted Ortofon Quintet Blue MC cartridge.
The immaculately crafted high-gloss finish in black or white, or alternatively the real wood veneer in walnut, add a choice of modern or classic touches.
- Chassis
Chassis in high-gloss black, high-gloss white and walnut real-wood veneer
The solid chassis made of compressed wood fibres stands on three height-adjustable aluminium feet with TPE* damping
The resonance-optimised, 5.1 kg platter is a sandwich construction of a polished aluminium platter damped with TPE* and a felt pad (replaceable).
The inverted platter bearing consists of an upright stainless steel axle with a ceramic ball on which a bushing with a ceramic bearing base rotates; a supporting magnetic bearing with neodymium magnets carries most of the load
Integrated motor control with electronic speed selection between 33 and 45 rpm
Outsourced power supply unit to protect against mechanical and electromagnetic interference
A transparent, hinged plexiglass dust cover is included
- Pro-Ject 9cc Evolution tonearm
Straight 9-inch tonearm
The conically shaped tonearm tube and the headshell are made of carbon fibre without attachments.
The tonearm tube can be twisted after loosening a screw. This allows horizontal (azimuth) adjustment of the cartridge.
The tonearm base offers an adjustment of the vertical pick-up angle (VTA)
