Pro-Ject E1.2 Turntable with Pick It MM E Cartridge
EISA Best Value Turntable 2025-2026
“Although an affordable turntable designed to make vinyl accessible to all, Pro-Ject’s E1.2 doesn’t skimp on quality. Offering robust bass and fulsome vocals, this is a disc spinner that’s equally suited to modern pop releases and vintage jazz. The plug ’n’ play design includes a pre-adjusted Pick it MM E cartridge to take the sting out of setup, and the step-by-step manual helps vinyl novices get quickly on their way. It’s a complete package too, supplied with dust cover, felt mat, and high-quality RCA cable. The E1.2 is a welcome, well-rounded offering in the often ‘quirky’ budget segment, and there are options with Bluetooth output or phono stage integration to make system setup even easier.”
The new 730g die-cast aluminium main platter creates an ideal, anti-resonant platform for your vinyl. To guarantee perfect playback, the platter is reworked and precision-balanced in an extra step to obtain a highly even spin.
Premium Pick it MM E
The phono cartridge is one of the most sound-forming and sonically critical part of a turntable. It transforms the physical grooves of a record into an electrical signal. This signal determines the base quality of the music playback.
The Pick it MM E uses a low mass system which is realised with a miniature neodymium generator magnet. Due to the lower inertia the result is a clear improvement of tracking accuracy.
The conical diamond tip delivers a warm and smooth high quality audio reproduction with low background noise.
The highly damped ABS body effectively reduces vibration induced colouration to a vanishing level.
TPE Decoupled Counterweight
The oversized diameter counterweight is placed closer to the moving parts, improving balance and tracking for better detail and bass response.
Precision pinpoint bearing
At its core is a heavy mass gimbal design, offering solid tracking and great sound stability. The precision bearing system with zero play means smooth movement and clean sound.
