Pro-Ject Headshell Signature Aluminium

The Pro-Ject Signature Headshells offer an excellent way for vinyl lovers and audiophiles to change their cartridges quickly and easily without sacrificing sound quality. These quick-change carriers are specifically designed for use with Signature tonearms and turntables and fit a wide range of turntables and tonearms thanks to the SME standard mounting. Thanks to the various materials available and the innovative design, the Pro-Ject Signature Headshells allow for precise adjustment of the sound and sound quality to individual preferences and needs.

Variety of materials for different sound characters

One of the outstanding features of the Pro-Ject Signature Headshells is the availability in different materials: Aluminium Chrome, Aluminium Black, Carbon and Oak . Each of these materials brings its own unique sound character. Aluminium Chrome and Black are known for their robustness and offer a balanced and clear sound reproduction. These headshells have a weight of 13.5 grams and are ideal for neutral sound reproduction.

Carbon, weighing just 10 grams, offers particularly precise sound reproduction due to its exceptional lightness and rigidity. It is the perfect choice for those who prefer high levels of detail and clarity in sound. Oak, on the other hand, the lightest of the available materials at just 8 grams, provides a warm and natural tone that is particularly evident in acoustic and vocal pieces.

Maximum flexibility and sound optimization

The Pro-Ject Signature Headshells offer users the opportunity to own a collection of different pickups and to select them according to their musical style and personal taste. The different materials and weights of the headshells make it possible to find the optimal combination of pickup and headshell that fits perfectly with the respective tonearms. This enables fine tuning and optimization of the sound quality by allowing the pickup to be changed quickly and easily without having to change the tonearm settings.

This flexibility is particularly valuable for audiophiles who frequently listen to different styles of music and want to achieve the best possible sound quality. Whether jazz, classical, rock or electronic music - with the Pro-Ject Signature Headshells it is possible to choose the ideal pickup for every style of music and thus exploit the full sound potential of the record player.

Easy installation and high compatibility

The Pro-Ject Signature headshells are equipped with a 1/2 inch mounting pitch and thus fit all tonearms that comply with the SME standard. This ensures broad compatibility with most turntable models on the market. The headshells are equipped with highly conductive OFC (Oxygen-Free Copper) cables , which ensure optimal signal transmission and minimal losses. The use of oxygen-free copper minimizes resistance and guarantees clean and clear sound reproduction.

In addition, the headshells are equipped with anti-magnetic precision screws that ensure that the pickup is securely and stably attached. These screws are compatible with the most common pickup types and therefore offer maximum flexibility when choosing the right system. The easy handling and high-quality workmanship of the headshells make changing the pickup quick and uncomplicated, which is particularly interesting for users who frequently switch between different pickups.

Low resonance and non-magnetic for precise sound

Another outstanding feature of the Pro-Ject Signature Headshells is their low-resonance and non-magnetic construction. The rigid construction and the use of high-quality materials ensure that unwanted vibrations are minimized and the sound reproduction is therefore particularly precise and clear. The non-magnetic properties of the materials also prevent interference from magnetic fields that could negatively affect the sound. This leads to improved sound quality and authentic music reproduction that meets the needs of even the most demanding audiophiles.

Precise azimuth adjustment for optimal sound

The Pro-Ject Signature headshells feature an azimuth adjustment via a screw on the side. This function allows precise adjustment of the azimuth, i.e. the angle of the cartridge in relation to the record surface. Correct azimuth adjustment is crucial for accurate tracking of the record grooves and optimal stereo imaging. With this adjustment option, users can ensure that their cartridge is perfectly aligned, resulting in improved sound fidelity and reduced distortion.

Integrated finger lift for easy handling

The Pro-Ject Signature headshells are equipped with an integrated finger lift for particularly easy handling. This allows the tonearm to be raised and lowered comfortably and safely, which is particularly advantageous when placing the needle exactly on the record groove. The finger lift not only contributes to user-friendliness, but also protects the sensitive needle of the pickup from damage.

The Pro-Ject Signature Headshells offer an excellent combination of flexibility, quality and ease of use. With a choice of different materials and weights, easy installation and precise adjustment options, they are the perfect choice for anyone who wants to get the most out of their vinyl collection. Whether for beginners or experienced audiophiles - these headshells meet the highest standards and guarantee a first-class listening experience.
