Pro-Ject Beatles Sgt. Peppers Special Edition Turntable
This special edition and collaboration between Pro-Ject Audio Systems and The Beatles has brought out a turntable which was inspired by the most successful Beatles album ever – Sergeant Pepper‘s Lonely Hearts Club Band.
The album is known as a milestone of music history in terms of commercial success as well as artistic breakthrough. No other album has been produced with such high efforts! This special edition‘s design of our Essential III turntable shows the base drum of the infamous album. Many myths and theories have been created because of this album and especially because of its cover.
It features high quality and audiophile components, such as an Ortofon OM10 cartridge, a precision diamond cut aluminium pulley, top notch MDF chassis, an acrylic platter or a completely redesigned motor control. Its sound is both lively and relaxing, musical and detailed just like the music from the Beatles, therefore they are perfect partners in crime.
Play 33 and 45 rpm records with this Pro-Ject Essential III turntable. Its DC-powered motor keeps vinyl rotating smoothly without excessive vibration, and the gold-plated RCA connectors ensure quality stereo sound.
This Pro-Ject Essential III turntable celebrates the Beatles' most famous album with artwork from Sgt. Pepper's bass drum displayed on the chassis
