Pro-Ject X2 B & Phono Box S3 B

"Huomio vinyyliharrastajat, jotka haluatte päivityksen aloitustason levysoittimesta seuraavaan: etsintänne on päättynyt. Pro-Jectin X2 B on uusi, balansoitu versio tutun valmistajan hyväksi todetusta X2-soittimesta varustettuna erinomaisella Ortofon Quintet Red MC -äänirasialla ja vaimennetulla hiilikuitu-alumiiniäänivarrella, jotka yhdessä takaavat soljuvan ja siistin toiston. Soittimen kaksi kilogrammaa painava akryylinen levylautanen ja jäykkä massiivinen plintti - joka muuten on saatavana neljällä upealla viimeistelyllä - takaavat tasaisen ja resonansseista vapaan toiston. Pro-Jectin Phono Box S3 B -levysoitinesivahvistin on ihanteellinen kumppani X2 B:lle, sillä kyseinen monipuolinen pikkulaatikko tarjoaa balansoidun kytkennän edut aina äänirasiasta vahvistimeen - ja kuulostaa upealta!"

The X2 B features our revolutionary True Balanced Connection

We're launching a whole line of new "True Balanced Connection" components that feature a balanced connection for your phono setup. The X2 B shows off this brand new phono technology.

Turntables look back on a long history. Over time, many things have changed, not only from technical possibilities, but also from the environment. Wireless networks are omni present and countless electronic devices make your home "smarter". This means there are now a lot of additional electromagnetic fields, which could interfere with your turntable's signal. This was simply not the case 30 years ago. To ensure the best connection to your phono preamplifier we designed our "True Balanced Connection".

WHAT'S TRUE BALANCED?

Balanced audio connections are usually known from the professional sector like recording studios or live concerts. It is very important to have a stable & interference free connection, as these signals will be highly amplified. The same applies to the connection from your turntable to the phono preamplifier. The big advantage of a balanced connection is its ability to remove picked up noise and interferences. And best of all, cartridges by nature are already balanced signal transducers! With True Balanced your are simply using everything, literally everything, that your cartridge is picking up from the record groove. You are not throwing away half of the usable signal, like is done in typical single-ended RCA phono connections.

The X2 B comes with mini XRL and RCA outputs and with our standard semi-balanced Connect it Phono E RCA cable. By upgrading it to our fully balanced mini XLR to mini XLR version (available separately) and using a balanced phono stage, like our Phono Box S3 B or DS3 B, you are fully set-up for the True Balanced experience. This leads to increased dynamics, less noise and improved signal to noise ratios. You can imagine it, like hearing parts of your music that literally were not there before.

True Balanced

Unleash the full power

Connect your X2 B with one of our new True Balanced Phono Cables to your phono preamp and benefit from an interference-free signal with increased dynamics & lower noise level.

Mini XLR Output

One cable connects it all

We offer a wide range of balanced phono cables with different connectors to fit all our phono preamps. If you want to use your X2 B with a Phono Box S3 B you need a "Connect it Phono Mini XLR / Mini XLR".

Balanced Preamps

A perfect match!

Pair your X2 B with one of our new balanced Phono Boxes and benefit from a fully balanced signal transmission to your phono preamplifier. Check out our new Phono Box S3 B & DS3 B for further information.

The X2 B retains all the real high-end features the original X2 had on offer.

Azimuth & VTA

Fully adjustable

The X2 B comes with fully adjustable Azimuth & VTA. It offers you the possibility to modify your X2 as you want it.

Quintet Red

High-end MC cartridge

The Ortofon Quintet Red is an all-purpose cartridge that delivers open, dynamic sound with a slight touch of warmth & is the perfect partner for our new X2 B.

2 kg Platter

Resonance free acryl

The perfect platform to place your precious vinyl records, guaranteeing absolute reliability in its performance and sonic character.

33/45/78 RPM

High precision motor control

A sophisticated DC/AC generator board generates clean and stable power to drive the motor. Easily change speed with the push of only a single button.

New motor suspension

A good motor by itself, is already very quiet. To get the best performance out of it, we have improved the motor suspension. The X2 B's motor chassis is carefully balanced and suspended on a precision tuned TPE belt - this way the motor chassis is effectively decoupled from the main plinth for optimal performance.

Metal Feet

Damped & height adjustable

The three height adjustable damped aluminium feet guarantee the perfect stand & massively reduce risk of acoustical feedback.

9'' Carbon-Aluminium Tonearm

Compared with its little brother the X1 B, the tonearm is longer - 9" in length - and the tube has a wider diameter. The carbon/aluminium sandwhich construction results in better internal damping. The increased mass makes the tonearm an excellent fit for low compliance MC cartridges.

Made in EU

Since 1991

Made in Europe by a turntable factory with decades of experience, it is a true hi-fi turntable which using our new True Balanced Connections takes your vinyl hobby to the next level.

EISA Award for True Balanced

Cartridges are balanced signal transducers by nature! Due to the internal wiring of MM cartridges, you'll need a MC cartridge to access the entirety of that balanced signal. The X2 B comes with an Ortofon Quintet Red MC cartridge factory aligned, and together with our new True Balanced Connection cables and our balanced phono stages you'll be able to access high-end features that were previously only available in the most expensive hifi categories. In combination with our Phono Box S3 B and X2 B, our True Balanced concept won the prestigious EISA Award for best Vinyl System!
