Pro-Ject RPM 9 Carbon Turntable

After extensive research and development, Pro-Ject now lifts their classic RPM design to an even higher level. The RPM 9 Carbon uses a new extra heavy chassis which features a special CNC-machined MDF plate that incorporates hard resin coated steel pellets to form a heavy, precise sandwich construction. A special complex heat treatment and a carbon surface coating ensure superior low resonance levels. Magnetic feet effectively decouple the mass-loaded chassis. A polished aluminum platter with internal TPE damping and vinyl top layer, combined with the inverted ceramic main bearing, delivers an absolutely stable turntable speed with extra low rumble. The extra-heavy outboard motor unit is equipped with motor control and features a built-in switch between 33 & 45 rpm.

Last but not least, the 9″ cc EVO tonearm, which is made from carbon fiber, is suitable for any high-quality MM or MC cartridge. The RPM 9 Carbon Superpack comes complete with a Sumiko Blackbird cartridge, representing a significant savings. Designed for exceedingly low noise levels, wide dynamic range and the highest possible fidelity, Blackbird is destined to become an analog classic. Each cartridge is assembled using time honored, labor intensive techniques, hand calibrated and critically auditioned to meet the most rigorous standards of consistency.

An optional dust cover is available for the RPM 9 Carbon. Please use Cover it RPM 5/9 Carbon.
