THE WORLDS OF VINYL AND DIGITAL COME TOGETHER...

-

The vinyl revival marches on with old-fashioned record sales growing in 2018 for the 13th successive year. However many of us have become reliant on digital music services like Apple Music or Spotify to get their groove on. Pro-Ject are a company specialisi­ng in traditiona­l turntables, who are also bringing together the best of digital and analogue features for music lovers. Their entry-level but critically acclaimed Primary Hi-Fi turntable is available in two versions. There’s a standard version that uses RCA connectors to plug in to your hi-fi or amp and it delivers crisp, warm sounds. They have also released USB-equipped version for the digital natives. This version has the RCA connectors for a standard set-up but it also has a USB port that can be plugged in to your Mac,

PC or even a USB preamplifi­er for added quality and balance. Available in two colours, the Primary comes with a pre-mounted cartridge and built-in phono pre-amplifier. The tracking force and anti-skating are carefully set and an acrylic dust cover is included. The Primary turntable with USB costs from €273. For more, see Project-audio.com
