Superb sound and great build are two hallmarks of the Project 0.5. It arrives complete with a factory-fitted quality Ortofon cartridge, a weight balanced metal platter all designed to sit atop a low resonance, MDF plinth. The arm has an independent weight adjustment to facilitate future cartridge upgrades and the motor is suspended over the plinth to reduce resonance.
"Noticeably superior" said HiFi World, "A bargain" was how What HiFi described it, "Way beyond expectations" enthused HiFi Choice - so summing up, you should expect a superior bargain!
