Pro-Ject Audio Systems

In 2016, Pro-Ject marked their 25th anniversary year with the release of a turntable that combined traditional styling with modern technology; showing their innate ability to keep turntables fresh and interesting at a time when popularity of the vinyl format was at a previously unprecedented level. The Classic proudly sits in the middle of a multi-award winning range of turntables that manage to combine sound performance with the latest technologies and unrivalled style at every level.
Pro-Ject are also obsessed with the importance of stereo playback systems. With modern audio systems often bringing speakers either very close together or into a single enclosure, the real impact and importance of true hi-fi stereo is being lost. That’s why everything Pro-Ject create is made with pure stereo applications in mind; bringing back the true emotional importance of music to audio enthusiasts around the world.
Based in Vienna, Austria, all Pro-Ject Audio Systems turntables are made by a highly skilled workforce with great skill, care and attention in their central-European factory.


Music Crate
The Music Crate concept has been introduced by Henley Audio to combine great sound with convenience and affordability. Curated by Henley Audio, drawing on our wide pool of quality hi-fi products, all Music Crate systems feature compatbility for turntables, Bluetooth streaming and often other music sources. For ultimate convenience, Music Crate systems are also supplied in one outer box - keeping everything together in transit.
Music Crate Issue 01 includes:
Pro-Ject Juke Box E
Pro-Ject Speaker Box 5
Loudspeaker Cables
Juke Box E is a vinyl record player with integrated phono stage, a Bluetooth receiver, a pre-amplifier and a power amplifier all in one stylish, compact chassis. When combined with the Speaker Box 5 in a matching high-gloss finish to make a complete hi-fi system, the performance and level of convenience on offer is unprecedented for the price.
The record player itself is based on a modified version of the popular Pro-Ject Primary design. While requiring no complicated set-up, the turntable design still includes premium features like an 8.6” aluminium tonearm with sapphire bearings, Ortofon OM 5E cartridge, perimeter belt-drive operation and a low-vibration synchronous motor with reliable speed stability. To set the turntable up there’s no need to adjust the anti-skate or counter-balance settings, simply install the belt and you’re ready to spin!
Built into the turntable chassis is a premium integrated amplifier with plenty of power and dynamic sound. Boasting 50W per-channel output, the amplifier has a moving-magnet phono stage built-in, based on Pro-Ject’s coveted Phono Box technology. There’s also a wireless Bluetooth input for CD-quality streaming from a compatible smart device, and an additional Line input. So any modern source can also be added to the Music Crate Issue 01 system.
Operation is simple thanks to the volume and input information shown on the display, and the 32-step digital potentiometer – with added push function for switching inputs – allows you to set playback at exactly your desired volume. For times when the Juke Box E is out of reach, the supplied remote control helps with switching inputs and adjusting volume, as well as accessing more sophisticated controls including Bass and Treble adjustment and a Loudness boost.
The included speaker cables are enclosed with a helpful user manual, so you can trim them to your preferred length - eliminating the presence of unsightly cables when the system is in place.
Music Crate Issue 01 is truly a delight to experience. With first class sound, stunning looks and true hi-fi principles in place - it's the perfect example of why we began the Music Crate concept.
