The Debut PRO B is a genuine audiophile-grade turntable that combines cutting-edge technology with elegant design. Equipped with the premium Pick it PRO Balanced moving magnet cartridge and a high-quality MiniXLR output, it’s fully True Balanced-ready—offering users the option to elevate their system’s performance to the next level.

The Most Audiophile Debut Yet

The Debut PRO B builds upon the classic Debut design, refining every element for a higher-end performance. Each component has been carefully re-engineered, with extensive research, development, and listening tests carried out to achieve the precise sound Pro-Ject aimed to deliver.

8,6‘‘ Carbon-Aluminium Tonearm

The Debut PRO B showcases Pro-Ject’s renowned one-piece Carbon-Aluminium tonearm technology. Its 8.6” tube combines the lightweight rigidity of carbon fibre with the damping and superior electrical shielding properties of aluminium, delivering enhanced stability and resistance to external interference.

Adjustable VTA & Azimuth

The Debut PRO B tonearm offers full adjustability for both azimuth and VTA (vertical tracking angle), enabling experienced audiophiles to fine-tune their setup with precision. This flexibility allows for optimal performance when using different cartridges or turntable mats, ensuring the best possible sound quality.

Clear Sonic Performance

The Debut PRO B features an in-house designed and precision-manufactured AC motor, built to tight tolerances for ultra-low noise performance. To further minimize any potential interference, the motor is decoupled from the main chassis via a specially engineered mounting plate with TPE-damped fixing points. This setup isolates the motor while maintaining perfect alignment with the sub-platter drive system, ensuring exceptional speed stability. The plinth is supported by three height-adjustable metal feet, also TPE-damped and finished in a distinctive nickel plating, creating a vibration-free platform ideal for high-fidelity record playback.

Speed Precision

The Debut PRO B supports both 33 and 45 RPM playback via a sleek top-mounted rocker switch for easy speed selection. For 78 RPM records, users can manually reposition the drive belt to the larger pulley ring. Beyond added convenience, the integrated speed control system electronically regulates motor rotation, ensuring precise and stable playback across all speeds.

Pro-Ject Pick it Pro Balanced

Pro-Ject has collaborated closely with Ortofon to create a unique cartridge designed to deliver a more lively, robust sound with a wide dynamic range—reminiscent of classic SPU cartridge designs. The Pick it Pro Balanced is also Pro-Ject’s first moving magnet cartridge capable of outputting a True Balanced signal when paired with compatible phono stages. The key advantage of a balanced connection lies in its ability to eliminate unwanted noise and interference for a cleaner, more accurate audio signal.

How To Make The Most Out Of Balanced

Pro-Ject’s True Balanced Connection concept takes inspiration from the world of professional audio, where balanced connections are the standard for delivering reliable, high-performance sound in demanding environments like live venues and recording studios. By bringing this technology to turntables, Pro-Ject aims to offer the same level of clarity and noise rejection to a wider audience of vinyl enthusiasts. To unlock the full potential of the Debut PRO B, it’s recommended to pair it with a balanced phono preamplifier—such as the Phono Box S3 B—and connect them using a Mini-XLR to Mini-XLR cable for the best possible audio performance.

The Debut PRO B

By incorporating more high-end features than ever into the Debut design, the Debut PRO B offers exceptional performance at an accessible price point—delivering a level of quality unmatched in its class. Backed by decades of engineering expertise, it also boasts a sleek, sophisticated appearance that stands out in any setup. Complete with all necessary accessories, the Debut PRO B is ready to play straight out of the box when connected to any hi-fi system with a moving magnet phono stage.
