The company that kept building turntables

When Heinz Lichtenegger started Pro-Ject in 1991, the turntable market was collapsing. Vinyl was finished as a mainstream format and most manufacturers had left. He went the other way, taking on a former Tesla turntable factory in Litovel in the Czech Republic and keeping its staff and tooling in work. Pro-Ject still build there.

The Debut arrived in 1999 and has sold in the hundreds of thousands since, which makes it one of the most widely owned turntables ever made. Above it the range climbs through heavier plinths and better bearings to reference decks with carbon and magnesium tonearms. Design is done in Austria, manufacturing across Germany, the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Alongside turntables, Pro-Ject build phono stages, amplifiers, DACs, streaming sources and record cleaning equipment, which makes them one of the few places a complete analogue system can come from a single manufacturer.

Most models arrive largely assembled and set up, which removes the usual barrier for a first turntable.

Pro-Ject offers a wide range of cartridges to suit different budgets and systems. Entry-level options like the Pro-Ject Pick it S2 provide excellent sound for new vinyl enthusiasts, while higher-end models such as the Pick it PRO deliver greater detail and dynamics. The best choice depends on your turntable, amplifier, and listening preferences. At Future Shop, our team can help match the right cartridge to your setup.

On average, a stylus should be replaced every 500–1,000 hours of playback, depending on use and record condition. Worn styli can cause distortion and damage records, so regular checks are important. Replacement Pro-Ject styli are available to keep your system performing at its best.

Pro-Ject offers several cleaning solutions, from simple brushes to advanced vacuum record cleaners. For everyday use, a carbon fibre brush removes surface dust before playback. For deeper cleaning, Pro-Ject’s VC-S3 or VC-E2 machines provide a thorough wash, ensuring your records remain free of dirt and static.

A record clamp or weight helps stabilise vinyl during playback, reducing vibrations and improving contact with the platter. This results in more accurate tracking and better sound quality. Pro-Ject clamps are designed for easy use and can make a noticeable difference in system performance.

If your amplifier doesn’t include a built-in phono input, a dedicated Pro-Ject phono stage is essential. Even if it does, upgrading to a standalone unit can improve dynamics, reduce noise, and bring more clarity to your vinyl playback. Pro-Ject’s compact designs offer excellent performance and value.

Carbon fibre brushes are ideal for removing surface dust and static before playback, while velvet pads are better for deeper surface cleaning. Many vinyl enthusiasts use both for a complete cleaning routine, ensuring optimal record care.

Stylus and contact cleaners remove dust, dirt, and oxidation from critical contact points. A clean stylus tracks more accurately, while clean connections between cables and phono stages help reduce unwanted noise. Pro-Ject’s cleaning solutions are safe, effective, and designed specifically for hi-fi systems.
