Pro-Ject RPM1 Genie turntable with fitted Ortofon OM3e cartridge.
The Pro-Ject RPM1 Genie is Pro-Ject's newest budget turntable and one of their most exciting new developments incorporating features usually only found on much more expensive turntables. Sound quality is unsurpassed at this price point.
The Pro-Ject RPM1 Genie utilises a peripheral drive for improved speed stability, an inverted main bearing, a drive motor completely decoupled from the plinth and a thick MDF platter. The S shaped arm is fully adjustable and capable of taking many different cartridges should you choose to try anything other than the fitted Ortofon. Build quality is to the usual very high Pro-Ject standard and the turntable can be upgraded by replacing the standard stylus with styli further up the Ortofon OM range. See below for options and potential savings.

Important Note:
The Pro-Ject RPM1 Genie may need an additional phono preamp to work in your system. If you are unsure please contact us or read the Phono Preamp FAQ. Because of this we have put together some Complete Turntable Bundles which can represent a major saving over purchasing the items separately.
We can put together custom bundles to meet your exact requirements and there are potentially big savings to be made. If you can't find a bundle to suit, please contact us or call 0115 841 5097
