Debut Carbon - The Original
After more than 25 years, the Debut family is one of the best-selling products in the history of hi-fi, with over 1 million units sold. It made listening to vinyl affordable for music lovers, and with its minimalist look and premium finishes it made analogue fashionable again.
Precision Drive System
TPE Suspension
Special Motor Suspension
The motor suspension decouples the motor from the plinth, so its vibrations don‘t reach the platter or the stylus.
Sub Platter
Glass-fibre-reinforced ABS
Light, rigid and dimensionally stable.
Steel Platter
Heavyweight
Adds rotational mass, so it spins smoothly and evens out small speed fluctuations.
Main Bearing
Quality stainless steel & bronze
Stable, accurate speed with low wow and flutter - music keeps its correct pitch and timing.
Sophisticated DC/AC power generator
The Debut Carbon – The Original uses a premium Pro-Ject AC motor driven by a precision DC/AC generator. An AC synchronous motor runs at a speed set by the frequency of its power supply, so its accuracy depends on how clean and stable that supply is. Household mains power often isn‘t: voltage and frequency drift, and noise from other appliances can get into the motor.
The generator solves this by converting the DC input into its own clean, precisely controlled AC signal for the motor. The motor runs independently of the quality of your mains supply, with constant speed, very low vibration and quiet operation.
Premium Tonearm
Anti-Skating
Correct adaptive mechanism
As the skating force varies between the inner and outer grooves, our anti-skating mechanism adjusts accordingly.
Carbon Tube
8,6" Tonearm
Super stiff and lightweight one-piece conical 8,6“ carbon tonearm design.
Smooth Bearing
Massive low friction pin point
The precise CNC milled alu tonearm bearing block absorbs all unwanted resonances coming from the cartridge.
TPE Damped
Special Damping
The TPE-damped counterweight reduces arm and cartridge resonances by up to 50%.
Pre-adjusted premium Pick it S2 MM
The Pick it S2 MM is made by the cartridge specialists at Ortofon and tuned by Pro-Ject‘s own design team. Its special elliptical stylus tip reads the groove precisely, giving detailed sound and a wide, open stereo image.
Ortofon‘s split pole pins provide a flat frequency response that compares with moving coil cartridges. A strong cantilever, the type used in DJ cartridges, makes it robust in everyday use without compromising sound.
Acrylic dustcover included
Holds in every opening position & can be removed easily if needed.
