If you are a Hi-Fi fanatic, you are always looking to upgrade your system-making improvements here and there in pursuit of the perfect sound. Typically, that involves adding a completely new component to your set up-a new amp, a new DAC, or a new set of speakers. All of which require significant investment. But not with turntables. There are multiple upgrades available without completely replacing the table you already have. You can opt for a new tone arm, plater, power supply, or cartridge. The list goes on, allowing you to start with a basic, inexpensive table and slowly transform it into a high performance Hi-Fi hot rod.
Not only is it more economical when compared to other component categories, but there’s a greater element of customization-you can build a turntable exactly to your liking, almost as if you are the product designer. Try that with a music streamer.
Most turntable designs offer the opportunity to upgrade by replacing certain parts, however, Pro-Ject is a standout in this area. Take the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon EVO for example. This is a solid performing turntable right out of the box, retailing for $599. But what makes this table such an intriguing option, is its potential. Virtually everything on it can be upgraded. From the cartridge to the feet with relatively minimal investment the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon EVO can become your reference, end-game turntable.
Same goes for other turntables in the Pro-Ject line up. From the entry level E1 to pinnacle tables like the RPM and Signature, there are upgrade opportunities all along the way. Again, that’s what makes the turnable portion of the Hi-Fi journey so enjoyable. You can upgrade at a more feasible and comfortable pace, and, maybe even more important, you can do it your own way. All Hi-Fi components are fun and exciting, but for this reason turntables are in a league of their own.

These tolerances we use in industrial use. Tight tolerances and you won’t be able to put it in like that
9:25 still rings like Big Ben
Ortofon 2m cartridges is also highly upgradable 😅
Please mention a stereo product ever made! That’s not using a transformer to put down the voltage to anywhere between 3-36volts and off course dc…
What is the 78 cardridge for this tone arm?
Best way to upgrade a turntable is by replacing it with a CD player 😆👍

@david. Many people who own a turntable these days also have a CD player or do streaming or listen to digital files or cassette tapes or whatever. CD and digital offers no wow or flutter, no crackle or other surface noise, and a ridiculously low noise floor in general. If you listen to older music vinyl offers the original mastering of the recording not some modified remaster that may be a mix of improvements and things you may not want like reduced dynamic range to make the recording sound "better" at lower volumes. While there is certaily some positive to be said for remasters there also is something about the original vinyl mastering on a good pressing of an album that has value and is historically interesting. Also some people have recordings that are rare enough to not be available on any more modern format so having a turntable to access those recordings is essential, one might even use the turntable to play that record and make a good digital copy of it. Another reason one might chose a to buy a turntable would be already owning a lot of vinyl. I have about 1500 nice well curated pieces from the 1950s right up through the decades that have been cleaned and mostly are in very good shape. I've been mostly ignoring the collection for a number of years now because my old turntable has been getting increasingly wonky and just yesterday purchased a Pro-ject Debut Carbon EVO to replace it. Anyway my point is that it's not quite as simple as "buy a CD player... it's better". Records are a pain in the ass really but they are cool especially when the recording is old enough that vinyl was the original format. I'm kind of in-between on the whole vinyl vs digital thing as I'm not a fan of nostalgic crackle sounds but I do own a good deal of unusual old recordings as well as early pressings of more popular stuff. I listen to streaming music, CD's, and vinyl but would tend lately to purchase a digital format of some sort because I like both the convenience of it as well as the lack of record noise. Long ago I owned a Linn LP12 with a Fidelity Research arm and a Grado wood cartridge that was like $300+ decades ago. I have to say that along with all the downsides of vinyl there was something to the sound of some of my best records over listening on CD... not sure how the Pro-ject will do but I'm excited to hear some of those old discs again and see how this new fangled carbon armed somewhat budget audiophile table can do!!! Have a nice day and enjoy some music on whatever format makes you the most happy.
