Project T2 W Turntable

Project T2 W Turntable

The Project T2 W Turntable is available for demonstration in our Hull store.

The T2 W is a full-feature turntable, boasting a precision engineered aluminium tonearm with a Sumiko Rainier cartridge pre-mounted and a thick glass platter. However, it's also one of the 'smartest' turntables available today thanks to its built-in Wi-Fi technology, allowing you to playback your vinyl records throughout your home reliably and in high-quality.

The T2 W combines a tried and tested turntable with innovative UPnP streaming technology. This ground-breaking feature is a first for Pro-Ject Audio Systems and enables seamless streaming to a wide range of modern network-enabled devices, including network streamers, home theatre receivers and contemporary streaming loudspeakers. Such versatility means the T2 W can fit into your living space in a way that suits you as it does not need to be next to any of your other audio equipment, allowing it to really take centre stage anywhere in your home.

The T2 W boasts excellent streaming technology, including the latest WLAN standards and 2x2 MIMO for faster transmission speeds and greater stability and reliability. This is all handled and managed by a multi-core CPU that has been over-specified for greater reliability.

This advanced technology allows the T2 W to send signals up-to 24-bit, 48kHz lossless compression, but there is also a lossy transmission option for wider compatibility with other devices. The streaming technology is also multi-room capable, meaning you can send audio to many zones all at the same time, without degradation. For ease of use, all these streaming features can be controlled by the new Pro-Ject Control app.

The T2 turntable is based around a stylish CNC-machined plinth that has been expanded in size to enhance stability and is available in three stylish finishes, including Gloss Black, Satin White, or Walnut. The core construction is free of plastic and has been carefully manufactured to ensure there are no hollow spaces inside, avoiding unwanted vibrations within the finished product.

Mounted inside the plinth is a high-performance belt drive system featuring an electronically regulated, precision-speed AC motor, attached to Pro-Ject’s finely engineered T-Line sub-platter, which is inserted into a stainless-steel axle/brass-bushing main bearing. The sub-platter drives the new heavy, zero-resonance glass platter with absolute stability, ensuring an ideal playback surface for vinyl records.

The tonearm on the T2 W is a new 9” model featuring a one-piece aluminium tube and an improved low-friction gimble bearing assembly and spring-loaded anti-skate mechanism for total accuracy in use. Mounted with the award-winning Sumiko Rainier cartridge for great sound out of the box, the tonearm is also pre-set for downforce and anti-skate settings, so there is no need for any complicated set-up; you can get playing straight away!

The T2 W features a new built-in dual-stage, split-passive moving magnet phono pre-amplifier. Rivalling the technology employed in some external phono stages, this built-in solution guarantees true hi-fi stereo sound, and ensures the signal that gets passed on to the digital wireless transmitter is of the highest quality.

The T2 W is supplied with a removable dust cover, felt mat and Pro-Ject’s premium Connect it E Phono RCA cable for a quality connection to an existing hi-fi system. As well as Wi-Fi connectivity, the turntable can also be connected to the network via the high-quality ethernet port included next to the RCA outputs. Available in its three finishes it can impress in any home environment, but what really sets it apart is the ability to transmit high-quality vinyl playback throughout your home for the first time.
