The most audiophile Debut yet

The Debut PRO B takes the traditional Debut template, but improves on every aspect, with each component re-engineered for a more high-end performance. Intensive research, development and listening tests have been necessary to gain the exact sound that Pro-Ject were looking for in producing the Debut PRO B.

8,6‘‘ Carbon-Aluminium Tonearm

The Debut PRO B features Pro-Ject’s coveted Carbon-Aluminium one-piece tonearm technology. The 8.6” tube is incredibly light and rigid, utilising the lightweight, sturdy characteristics of carbon fibre, and combining it with aluminium for its added damping properties and better electrical shielding, resulting in improved resistance to external interferences. 

Adjustable VTA & Azimuth

The Debut PRO B tonearm can also be adjusted for accurate azimuth and VTA (vertical tracking angle) settings, allowing more experienced audiophiles to fine-tune their Debut better than ever before, allowing the use of different turntable mats or other cartridges to always achieve the best sound quality.

Clear Sonic Performance

The in-house designed and manufactured AC drive motor is made to fine tolerances for minimal noise, but to further eliminate any potential interference the motor is decoupled from the main chassis by a mounting plate with TPE-damped fixing points. The mounting plate isolates the motor while still keeping it perfectly level with the sub-platter drive system for absolute speed stability. The turntable plinth also sits on three height-adjustable metal feet with TPE-damping  in a unique nickel-plated finish for the Debut PRO B. The result is a platform free from unwanted vibrations, ideally suited to record playback.  

Speed Precision

The Debut PRO B is equipped to play 33 and 45 RPM records with a simple switch of the elegant top-mounted rocker switch. When setting to 45 RPM playback and manually adjusting the drive belt to a larger pulley ring, the turntable can also play 78 RPM records. As well as bringing convenience to the overall design, the speed control system also ensures the motor rotation is electronically regulated for total accuracy and stability. 

Pro-Ject Pick it PRO Balanced

Pro-Ject have been able to work closely alongside Ortofon to produce a very special cartridge, designed to deliver a more lively and robust sound with a big dynamic range, similar to that of traditional SPU cartridge designs. The Pick it Pro Balanced is also the first moving magnet cartridge from Pro-Ject that’s capable of supporting a True Balanced audio signal to compliant phono stages. The big advantage of a balanced connection is its ability to remove picked up noise and interferences.

The Debut Pro B

By adding more high-end features than ever before to a Debut design, the result is a still-affordable turntable that delivers like nothing else at the price point. But, thanks to their decades of experience in engineering, the Debut PRO B also has an eye-catching and sophisticated appearance.  

Supplied with all of the accessories you need, the Debut PRO B is ready to play once it’s connected to a hi-fi system with a moving magnet phono stage.
