Premium Tonearm

The Debut EVO 2 turntable features a premium 8.6" carbon fiber armtube with a massive aluminum bearing block (like Debut PRO). The low-friction tonearm bearing guarantees precise, stable and accurate tracking. The carbon fiber tube is both highly rigid & low in mass. The one-piece armtube/headshell design prevents unwanted resonance and offers an ideal physical pairing with the phono cartridge. This superbly-built tonearm delivers impressive sound quality propelled by immersive soundstaging with loads of detail. 

 

Adaptive Anti-Skating Mechanism

As the skating force varies between the inner and outer grooves of a vinyl record, our antiskating mechanism adjusts accordingly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Carbon Fiber Tonearm Tube

Super stiff and lightweight one-piece 8.6" carbon tonearm design.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Massive LowFriction Bearing

The CNC-milled aluminum bearing block facilitates very low friction & high rigidity. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TPE-Damped Die-Cast Platter

The 1.7kg (3.75lbs) die-cast aluminum platter is precision balanced with additional machining after casting. This facilitates perfect platter rotation while playing records. The heavy aluminum platter also adds a TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) damping ring & corresponding cutout on the underside, muting any resonance created by the metal record platter and contributing to the flywheel effect. Advancing the design, Debut EVO 2 moves away from its predecessor's steel platter and welcomes moving coil cartridges. 

 

 


Height-Adjustable Damped Feet

The Debut EVO 2 stands on three heightadjustable TPE-damped feet for easy leveling & great isolation. By using 3 feet we are able to increase stability on uneven surfaces while minimizing surface-contact. 


 





 

Pick it MM EVO Phono Cartridge

The new Pick it MM EVO cartridge completes the Debut EVO 2 in all respects. It compliments the tonearm both sonically & aesthetically. Our phono specialists teamed up with Danish cartridge specialists to develop this design. It uses split-pole pins known for achieving a flat frequency response that's typically only attainable with moving coil designs. 


 


High-Quality RCA/Ground Cables

Cables cannot add any information back to a given signal, rather, they're responsible for allowing as much musical information as possible through to the receiving device. This is why we include our Connect it Phono E RCA cable. Optimized for phono applications, we've implemented quality metals & careful configuration to ensure lossless signal transmission. 


Upgrade to TRUE BALANCED

True Balanced operation is attainable with an RCA > Mini XLR cable and any of the 3 phono preamps above (they have mini XLR inputs).

 

 


Sophisticated DC/AC Power Generator

Our turntables use switch-mode power supplies for good reason. They take the unrefined AC power from your wall and convert it to DC. That DC power is then fed to DC/AC generator within the turntable, which in turn powers the AC motor. The advantage is that a completely new sine wave is created by the generator, fully decoupling your turntable from the dirty AC power coming from your outlet. This amounts to steady power being fed to the motor thereby enhancing speed stability.

 

 

Two Upgrades in One Box!

Clean & stable power is critical for phono setups. The included power supply is a great starting point but you can take it further. Power Box S3 Phono provides power for the Debut PRO B (15V) as well as your Pro-Ject phono stage (18V). Its two outputs are specifically engineered to power Pro-Ject turntables and phono preamps simultaneously. The sophisticated DC filtration can have a dramatic impact on overall
sound quality. In addition to the sonic improvements, Power Box S3 Phono also offers users a cleaner cable solution (only one wall-wart needed for the PSU).
