Featuring a 10\" tonearm and decades of Pro-Ject’s turntable engineering expertise, it’s built to tackle resonance and enhance isolation. At its core is a heavy, magnetically suspended sub-chassis paired with a precision-balanced platter made from alloy and recycled vinyl. Weighing nearly 50 lbs, the structure is supported by magnetic isolation feet that block mechanical vibrations. The result is a low-resonance environment where your music plays with exceptional clarity and quiet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy Belt Drive Turntable  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMass Loaded Magnetic Floating Subchassis  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision Balanced Sandwich-Platter  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy Weight Record Clamp  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow Level of Natural Resonance  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectronic Speed Control 33\/45\/78 Upm  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTonearm 10cc Evolution Made from Carbon Fibre  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrecision Motor and Advanced Tonearm Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA DC-driven AC motor with a two-step pulley and electronic speed control maintains perfect pitch and rhythm resulting in inaudible wow \u0026amp; flutter. Further reducing noise and vibration is the isolated TPE mounting board for the 10\" carbon-fiber tonearm. The conical arm and integrated headshell are fashioned from a single piece of carbon fiber to avoid problems associated with standing wave reflections. Single-screw fixing of the armtube allows for easy azimuth adjustment if needed. The arm is fully adjustable for VTA and includes a high-performance, purpose-designed DIN-RCA phono cable (1.23m).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInside the Plinth\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRPM 9 \u0026amp; 10 Carbon, Xtension 9, 10 \u0026amp; 12 Evolution, and Signature 10 \u0026amp; 12 use plinths that are more than meets the eye. These high-end turntables not only use medium-density fiber (MDF, which absorbs resonance), but inside the plinths are also “central gravity points” filled will steel pellets. Drawing harmful resonance to the central gravity point all but eliminates the potential for plinth and bearing noise to reach the tonearm and cartridge. Pellets are used as opposed to a solid alloy due to their dispersion effect where a solid alloy may resonate. This design heightens the overall mass of these turntables as well, a well-known approach to optimizing sonics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTrue Balanced – Get Blown Away\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSetting us apart from the competition, all Pro-Ject turntables are configured for balanced operation.* Switching to balanced is no subtle upgrade and promises to redefine ‘reference’ sound quality in your turntable system. What’s needed to get there are a) a moving coil cartridge, b) a turntable with balanced phono outputs, c) a phono preamp with balanced phono inputs and d) a balanced cable carrying the phono signal from turntable to phono preamp. Typically a much more costly endeavor, Pro-Ject has changed that landscape by offering products that make the technology attainable to any serious listener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFlexible Connectivity with Balanced \u0026amp; Unbalanced Options\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eXtension 10 Evolution comes equipped with a balanced 5-pin DIN phono output and can be run balanced with either DIN \u0026gt; XLR or DIN \u0026gt; mini XLR phono cables and a balanced phono stage. The turntable ships with a DIN \u0026gt; RCA phono cable for maximum compatibility out of the box (unbalanced dual single-ended RCA\/ground is by far the most common connection type in phono).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pro-Ject","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51248968335671,"sku":"184377","price":4999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/2860\/9079\/files\/Pro-Ject-Xtension-10-Evolution-Turntable-Walnut-Image-01.jpg?v=1761158559","url":"https:\/\/www.worldwidestereo.com\/products\/pro-ject-xtension-10-evolution-turntable-with-evo-cc-tonearm-walnut","provider":"World Wide Stereo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
