Pro-Ject E1.2 Phono Turntable with MM E Cartridge

The Pro-Ject E1.2 Phono transforms vinyl into an experience: a turntable that perfectly balances user-friendliness, audiophile DNA, and modern design. True to the Auditorium spirit, the focus here is not on technology for its own sake, but on music, emotion, and an uncomplicated entry into the analog world.

Enjoy analog – precisely controlled

This manual turntable with classic belt drive relies on a proven design that ensures smooth operation and natural sound reproduction. At its heart is the straight 8.6-inch tonearm with a lightweight aluminum tube. Its low-friction bearing allows for precise tracking of the cartridge and creates ideal conditions for extracting even the finest details and spatial nuances from the groove.

Ready to play – simply plug in

Perfectly calibrated right out of the box, the turntable comes complete with a pre-mounted Pick it MM E MM cartridge. This means: unpack, plug in, and enjoy your music immediately – no complicated setup or adjustments required.

More freedom thanks to the integrated phono preamplifier

The phono version expands the concept with a switchable phono preamplifier. This allows the turntable to be connected directly to active speakers or amplifiers without a dedicated phono input. It doesn't get much more flexible than that – ideal for modern hi-fi setups and minimalist systems.

Electronic speed switching

Whether classic LP or single: 33 and 45 rpm can be conveniently selected at the touch of a button. No manual belt adjustment, no hassle – just music.

Solid aluminum platter for smooth operation

The 730-gram die-cast aluminum platter ensures smooth operation and low-resonance playback. Combined with the rubber mat, it creates a stable base for precise tracking while simultaneously protecting records.

Precision in detail – subplatter & motor

A fiberglass-reinforced ABS sub-platter ensures even rotation and forms the basis for stable pitch and authentic sound. The damped DC motor operates with minimal vibration and is driven by a precision-ground belt – a combination that guarantees optimal speed stability and musical serenity.

Stable construction for quiet sound

The CNC-milled chassis, made of rigid fiber composite material, deliberately avoids resonating cavities. This design effectively reduces unwanted vibrations and creates a solid platform for precise speed control and detailed playback. The concept is complemented by low-vibration damping feet that further decouple the turntable.

Comfort & everyday usability

A removable dust cover protects the mechanism during everyday use, while the included high-quality phono cable (1.23 m) ensures immediate connection. Visually, the turntable blends harmoniously into a wide variety of living environments thanks to three modern color options – from classic high-gloss black to satin white and natural walnut.

Craftsmanship, tradition and guarantee

Manufactured in the EU, this product combines traditional craftsmanship with modern production technology. The result: durable turntables with impressive sound quality and high-quality construction. A two-year warranty completes the package – for worry-free music enjoyment.
