Returns Simplified.The Pro-Ject Signature 10 is a high-end turntable that combines mass-loaded and magnetically suspended design for superior isolation and performance. Its steel-pellet-filled plinth is floated by three magnetic feet, while the aluminum sub-chassis rests on TPE cushions to minimize vibration. The precision-machined, TPE-damped platter rotates silently on a magnetically supported inverted ceramic bearing. A 10-inch single-pivot carbon tonearm, designed by Pro-Ject, offers wide adjustability and includes multiple counterweights for broad cartridge compatibility. With its meticulous engineering and analog focus, the Signature 10 delivers exceptional audiophile-grade playback.
RPM 9 & 10 Carbon, Xtension 9, 10 & 12 Evolution, and Signature 10 & 12 use plinths that are more than meets the eye. These high-end turntables not only use medium-density fiber (MDF, which absorbs resonance), but inside the plinths are also central gravity points filled will steel pellets. Drawing harmful resonance to the central gravity point all but eliminates the potential for plinth and bearing noise to reach the tonearm and cartridge. Pellets are used as opposed to a solid alloy due to their dispersion effect where a solid alloy may resonate. This design heightens the overall mass of these turntables as well, a well-known approach to optimizing sonics.
Setting us apart from the competition, all Pro-Ject turntables are configured for balanced operation.* Switching to balanced is no subtle upgrade and promises to redefine reference sound quality in your turntable system. Whats needed to get there are a) a moving coil cartridge, b) a turntable with balanced phono outputs, c) a phono preamp with balanced phono inputs and d) a balanced cable carrying the phono signal from turntable to phono preamp. Typically a much more costly endeavor, Pro-Ject has changed that landscape by offering products that make the technology attainable to any serious listener.
Signature 10 comes equipped with a balanced 5-pin DIN phono output and can be run balanced with either DIN > XLR or DIN > mini XLR phono cables and a balanced phono stage. The turntable ships with a DIN > RCA phono cable for maximum compatibility out of the box (unbalanced dual single-ended RCA/ground is by far the most common connection type in phono). Balanced add-ons are sold separately.
