Product Description
Like when the original, now iconic, Debut turntable burst onto the scene in 1999, the Primary E has been designed to offer a hi-fi friendly alternative to vinyl music lovers who are limited by their budget. Where the majority of affordable turntables are impacted by flimsy, plastic components or poor quality accessories, the Primary E is a reliable, made-in-Europe product designed by a leading analogue audio company. Protect your records and enjoy their sound with Primary E.
Offering exactly the same features and performance as the multi-award winning Primary record player, the Primary E is available for an even more appealing budget because of its direct-wired 230V motor.
Pro-Ject Primary E Highlights
| | | | |
|---|---|---|---|
Low vibration synchronous motor direct-fed by mains | Pre-adjusted tracking force & anti-skating force | Pre-mounted Ortofon OM cartridge | Acrylic lid included |
The quiet-running, stable motor is direct-fed to the mains – like many other popular designs from the Pro-Ject range, such as the original, award-winning Debut Carbon – reducing the need for internal signal processing and an external power supply. The end result of this change is a turntable that still sounds like a true piece of hi-fi, but that costs less than ever before.
The Primary E's 8.6″ aluminium tonearm uses sapphire bearings for optimal tracking across a record side. The tonearm is designed specially for use with the supplied Ortofon OM cartridge, and it's pre-configured to play straight out of the box with no fiddly setup.

What Hi-Fi?, August 2018“The Primary E confidently nails the basics, from an even tonal balance to a delivery that’s clear and clean and spacious enough to keep things coherent.” | Wired Magazine, November 2018“it’s an entertaining and enjoyable listen. Smoothly easy-going where Spotify files or CDs are spiky and edgy, the Primary E is a classic gateway drug. Six months on the Pro-Ject and you’ll be mainlining vinyl for the rest of your life.” | Hi-Fi Choice, 2018“Setting an impressive standard for the entry-level, this plug-and-play deck is perfectly pitched.” |
