Description

We are authorised dealers of both Edifier and Pro-Ject so you can be assured of a genuine product backed by full two year manufacturer warranty.

You will be simply blown away by the sound, design and value of this Digitalis combination!

Pro-Ject was founded in 1991, with the mission to offer the best analogue experience for reasonable prices. In a time where the digital audio media had been on the rise, and vinyl was declared as outdated and dead, Pro-Ject kept their belief in the simple but best way to enjoy music – turntables.

Pro-Ject’s aim is to get as many people as possible into the wonderful hobby that is HiFi audio and to deliver a real stereo experience for the lowest cost possible. The best way to start there is with a proper turntable. They want to give music lovers the right to choose what they need by not overblowing their products with unnecessary features. They strive to create astonishing products that offer impeccable value by using the best components for the price and manufacturing their handmade goods solely in Europe.

The Active speakers (built in amplifier) are made by Edifier who, with the same vision of financially accessible Hi-Fi,  are rapidly creating a name for themselves as a manufacturer of high-quality sounding speakers at ridiculously competitive prices. Their speakers offer stylish and compact solutions without compromising on sound quality making them perfect for anyone who is looking for a small but mighty setup.

Due to the turntables built in phono stage these two items are all you need to get playing your vinyl and will be up and running in no time.

The speakers also have an extra input so you can connect your laptop, pc, TV or smartphone and also feature Bluetooth connectivity so you can connect to any of your Bluetooth devices to stream music, podcasts, radio etc.

The Turntable

The E1 is based around a stylish main plinth, directly inspired by other Pro-Ject designs. It is a CNC-machined composite fibre platform, which contains no hollow spaces, and boasts excellent anti-resonance properties. Mounted inside the plinth is a precision belt drive system with a damped DC motor, attached to a sub-platter. The sub-platter drives the new ABS Polymer main platter, which is strengthened with purpose-designed ridges in order to create an ideal, anti-resonant platform for your vinyl. Automatic speed change is conveniently handled by the 3 position power switch on the side of the plinth.

Tonearm and Cartridge

The tonearm on the E1 is a new 8.6” model featuring a one-piece aluminium tube, a two-point bearing assembly and a new fixed headshell. The result is a true hi-fi quality tonearm with low moving mass and good electrical isolation; perfect for accurate musical playback. The tonearm is then finished with an Ortofon OM 5E cartridge with elliptical diamond stylus for great sound. The tonearm is also  factory-set for downforce and anti-skate settings, so there’s no need for any complicated set-up; you can get playing straight out of the box!
