The Pro-Ject RM-5.1 SE is a manual belt-driven turntable with a fitted MC-cartridge (Sumiko Blue Point No. 2). Its resonance-optimized platter is made from MDF and features and integrated vinyl mat. The platter rests upon an MDF plinth with a suspended motor assembly optimized for low resonance and speed stability. The turntable incorporates a stainless steel axle that runs on a Teflon bearing plate in a bronze housing for lower wow-and-flutter and superior speed accuracy. A fixed headshell and 9" carbon fiber tone-arm with precision Swiss bearings and rigid carbon fiber arm tube provide superior tracking and cartridge control. Three-point aluminum cone feet further reduce noise and vibration.
Includes a Pro-Ject Speed Box S upgraded power supply which allows for changing the speed without taking the platter off and factory acrylic cover for the turntable. Turntable belt was replaced a year ago. Cartridge has some life left in it but should be replaced in the short term.
Can demo for serious buyers. All original boxes and factory packing materials are included for the turntable, turntable cover, and speed box. Cash only sale.
