But the magic in the T2 W is its integrated wireless capability that allows for networked streaming of Hi-Fi vinyl bliss, even at lossless 48kHz\/24-bit FLAC output. The icing on the digital vinyl cake is the ability to manage it all via 'Pro-Ject's Control' app. Pro-Ject's innovation and approach to quality with the T2 W earned them a seat at EISA's \"Best of\" table with \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/eisa.eu\/awards\/pro-ject-t2-w\" title=\"EISA Vinyl System 2023-2024 Pro-Ject T2 W\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ebest Vinyl System Product of 2023-2024\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStream Vinyl Anywhere\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe T2 W builds upon Pro-Ject's highly acclaimed T1 formula while introducing innovative Wi-Fi streaming tech.

The A2 allows you to select the lateral location where the tonearm drops to the record groove. Make this selection with the dial for 7″ records (45rpm singles) or 12″ (33 or 45rpm vinyl records.) For additional flexibility, 78rpm has been added to the speed selector dial, allowing you to dust off your collection of old 10″ shellac records (please manually position the tonearm for 10″ 78s, then use the dampened cueing lever.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Remember that 78s have unusual groove width and are made of different materials than most other discs. We recommend Sumiko’s RS 78 stylus for use with the highly adept Sumiko Rainier moving magnet phono cartridge (it’s mounted \u0026amp; aligned at the factory!)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo enjoy listening to your A2 turntable, just flip the ‘Start’ switch. The tonearm will automatically move to the lead-in groove of the selected record size. Once playing, the automatic tonearm functions are entirely disengaged until the arm reaches the lead-out groove. At the lead-out groove, the tonearm will automatically lift and return to the arm rest and the turntable will shut down. Because the automatic functions are entirely mechanical, they bear no influence over sound quality during playback!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eImproved Tonearm \u0026amp; Gimbal Bearing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A2 automatic record player features an ultra-low-mass 8.3″ aluminum tonearm. An arm tube with a larger diameter is used to accommodate more cartridges. The A2 is proudly supplied with a Sumiko Rainier ($149 value) which positions you to upgrade to Olympia, Moonstone or Wellfleet with a simple swap of the stylus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe suspended sub-chassis design yields a fast response loaded with transient detail and alluring micro-dynamics, while the Sumiko Rainier lends its warmth \u0026amp; smoothness- a match made in heaven. The tonearm bearing features a 4-pinpoint gimbal with steel-tip ball bearings made in-house by Pro-Ject. This design yields the lowest amount of friction possible and A2 will trace your record grooves with the utmost precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Pro-Ject A2 turntable bird's eye front right corner highlighting tonearm\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/9255\/5595\/files\/pro-ject-a2-automat-lifestyle.jpg?v=1704985805\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHeavy MDF Plinth, Floating Sub-Chassis\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heavy MDF plinth is carefully hand-painted in a luxurious 8-coat matte black finish. Its mass greatly reduces unwanted resonance and isolates it from external vibration. The A2 then employs a system wherein the tonearm, platter bearing and motor are affixed to a separate, floating sub-chassis. This isolates the most critical components from external noise, resonance \u0026amp; interference. This can be especially advantageous when, for example, your loudspeakers are near your turntable in proximity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Pro-Ject A2 suspension 3D diagram showing internal components and sub-chassis\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/9255\/5595\/files\/project-a2-suspension-2_2048x2048.jpg?v=1704834048\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMassless Tracking Force Adjustment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDamping the counterweight makes the tonearm as a whole more robust. It also decouples the counterweight from the tonearm which reduces resonant frequencies. Tracking force is set by adjusting a precision spring (as from the wristwatch industry!) affixed to the tonearm bearing. This keeps the center of gravity directly above the bearing center.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy a Suspended Sub-Chassis Design?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe automatic mechanism is sizable and comprised of many parts. Thusly it requires a substantial cutout from the main plinth. Enclosed hollow spaces in turntables are cavernous propagators of vibration \u0026amp; resonance. By employing a suspended sub-chassis, we decouple the tonearm, cartridge and drive mechanism from the solid, high-mass main chassis, eliminating hollow spaces and their adverse effects on sound quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHandmade in Germany\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA2’s automatic mechanism is fully handmade in Germany and builds on decades worth of experience in the manufacturing of turntables. Upwards of 98% of it’s parts \u0026amp; components are made and produced in Germany (either within the factory or in its immediate vicinity).

Pro-Ject's first ever acrylic turntable was the Pro-Ject 6.9 Perspective, and it was a huge success. 6PerspeX variants have been around for 15+ years too, not to mention a host of 2Xperience variants in acrylic. Needless to say, the limited run of their Perspective Final Edition turntable sold out swiftly as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey take pride in how these turntables take advantage of both the aesthetic \u0026amp; sonic values of acrylic in hi-fi, but using acrylic in manufacturing is not as easy as you might think. True, it's anti-resonant, but the rest of the turntable must also lend itself to the sonic equation.
