Debut Pro S Balanced
The Pro-Ject Debut PRO S Balanced is a high-performance belt-drive turntable featuring a 10-inch S-shaped aluminium tonearm, precision aluminium platter and Pick it S2 C cartridge. Its balanced mini-XLR output enables a true balanced phono connection for low-noise, detailed and dynamic vinyl playback.
The Pro-Ject Debut PRO S Balanced combines the proven Debut platform with a longer 10-inch S-shaped tonearm and true balanced connectivity, creating a highly versatile turntable for serious vinyl systems.
Its 10-inch aluminium tonearm is designed for excellent rigidity and controlled resonance, while the removable SME-style headshell connection makes cartridge changes straightforward. Fully adjustable VTA and azimuth allow accurate cartridge alignment and provide flexibility for future upgrades.
The supplied Pick it S2 C moving magnet cartridge is pre-adjusted for easy setup, while the newly designed output section includes a balanced mini-XLR connection. When partnered with a compatible balanced phono stage and cable, this allows the cartridge signal to be transmitted in balanced form, helping reduce unwanted noise and interference.
A precision die-cast aluminium platter provides a stable platform for the record, with an internal TPE damping ring helping control resonance and minimise wow and flutter. An aluminium sub-platter further improves rotational accuracy and provides a solid mechanical interface between the platter and bearing.
The electronically regulated synchronous motor provides accurate and stable playback at 33 and 45rpm, while 78rpm records can also be played using the supplied round drive belt. TPE motor suspension helps isolate motor vibration from the chassis.
Three height-adjustable damped aluminium feet provide a stable foundation and help reduce the influence of external vibration and acoustic feedback. The turntable is also supplied with Pro-Ject's Record Puck E, adding further stability and damping during playback.
Handmade in Europe, the Debut PRO S Balanced combines extensive adjustability, high-quality construction and true balanced connectivity with the distinctive flexibility of a 10-inch S-shaped tonearm. It is an excellent choice for listeners looking for a refined and upgradeable turntable capable of delivering precise, detailed and engaging vinyl playback.
