Pro-Ject E1 BT Turntable With Bluetooth Transmitter (OPEN BOX)

Pro-Ject E1 BT Turntable With Bluetooth Transmitter (OPEN BOX)

The Pro-Ject E1 BT combines simple vinyl playback with a built-in phono preamp and Bluetooth 5.2 transmitter. Additionally, this European-made belt-drive turntable offers an easy-to-use design for beginners and returning vinyl listeners. Moreover, its thoughtful materials and sound-focused engineering also make it suitable for experienced record fans.

Its Plug & Play design arrives with tracking force and anti-skating pre-adjusted by Pro-Ject technicians. That means you can spend less time working through adjustments and more time listening. Add electronic 33/45 RPM speed switching, an Audio Technica cartridge, and wireless connectivity, and the Pro-Ject E1 BT offers a practical mix of traditional vinyl playback and modern convenience.

Built-In Bluetooth 5.2 Transmitter

Want to enjoy vinyl without running an audio cable across the room? Additionally, the Pro-Ject E1 BT adds wireless connectivity to its built-in phono preamplifier. Therefore, its Bluetooth 5.2 transmitter connects wirelessly to compatible Bluetooth speakers, headphones, or amplifiers.

The turntable also supports aptX HD and aptX Adaptive. Qualcomm aptX Adaptive audio is designed to provide robust, high-resolution Bluetooth wireless audio, giving the Pro-Ject E1 BT another convenient way to bring your record collection into a modern listening setup.

Plug & Play Turntable Design

Getting started with vinyl is simple with the Pro-Ject E1 BT and its convenient Plug & Play design. Additionally, experienced factory technicians pre-adjust the tracking force and anti-skating. Therefore, the turntable arrives with these essential settings already configured.

Additionally, an electronic speed switch makes it simple to move between 33 and 45 RPM playback. Instead of manually changing the belt position whenever you switch record speeds, you can select the required setting electronically.

8.6-Inch Aluminium Tonearm

The Pro-Ject E1 BT features a reworked, lightweight 8.6-inch aluminium tonearm with a new headshell design. Additionally, its low-friction construction is optimized for the included Audio Technica AT 3600 L cartridge. Moreover, this combination helps the cartridge perform as intended.

The tonearm has a 218.5 mm effective length, a 22 mm overhang, and a 7.0 g effective mass. Additionally, these specifications help create a carefully matched playback system. Moreover, the setup is designed around the included cartridge.

Audio Technica AT 3600 L Cartridge Included

You do not need to source a separate cartridge before playing your records. The Pro-Ject E1 BT comes equipped with an Audio Technica AT 3600 L cartridge directly from the factory.

Because the tonearm is optimized specifically for this cartridge, the two components work together as an integrated system. Combined with the pre-adjusted tracking force and anti-skating, this keeps the turntable focused on simple operation right out of the box.

Anti-Resonant ABS Polymer Platter

The main platter uses ABS polymer strengthened with purpose-designed ridges. This construction creates an anti-resonant platform for your vinyl while maintaining the lightweight design of the Pro-Ject E1 BT.

The platter measures 300 mm and comes with a felt mat. Meanwhile, a silicon belt with optimum damping supports the turntable's belt-drive system, while vibration-absorbing feet help isolate the deck from unwanted movement.

CNC-Machined Composite Fibre Plinth

The Pro-Ject E1 BT features a CNC-machined composite fibre plinth carefully manufactured without hollow spaces inside. Additionally, its carefully constructed base provides a solid foundation for the turntable’s playback components.

You can choose between high-gloss black, satin white, or walnut finishes for a look that suits your setup. Additionally, the clean design pairs understated styling with European manufacturing. Moreover, its sound-focused construction complements the turntable’s refined appearance.

Built-In Switchable Phono Preamp

A switchable phono preamp is built directly into the Pro-Ject E1 BT. This built-in stage works alongside the Bluetooth transmitter while also giving the turntable its integrated phono amplification capability.

For wired use, Pro-Ject includes a 1.23-metre gold-plated RCA phono cable. This gives you both wireless and wired connection options within the same turntable design.

Dust Cover and Useful Accessories

Keeping the turntable protected between listening sessions is easier with the included acrylic dust cover. Additionally, its adjustable hinges provide convenient everyday use. Moreover, the clean design complements the overall styling of the deck.

The Pro-Ject E1 BT also includes a felt mat, an adapter for 7-inch singles, the 1.23-metre gold-plated RCA phono cable, and the required power supply.
