Pro-Ject Dark Side of the Moon - Special Edition Turntable

Not only the music of the album „The Dark Side Of The Moon“ is truly iconic, also the artwork itself. It shows an enigmatic prism which reflects beams of light into space. A magical and mystical theme which illustrates the band‘s complex sound world.

It‘s not all dark

For Pro-ject, it was very clear: They needed to create a turntable out of this artwork, which reproduces the dynamic and colours of the original album.

The result is an extraordinary turntable, which has never been there before. They were able to keep the core aspects of the artwork design and combine it with high-quality materials. The plinth is made of MDF which offers the perfect base. The stainless steel axle of the heavy aluminium subplatter sits in a bronze bushing. The flat silicon belt builds the connection to the AC motor, which ensures stable speeds.

Unique acrylic tonearm design

The low resonance tonearm is a completely new design and definitely one of the highlights of this turntable. Its combination of black aluminium parts and acrylic results in an absolute eye-catcher. The supplied Pick it PRO Special Edition is tuned to fit the whole concept and delivers the rich sound you would expect for a Dark Side Of The Moon turntable.

LED backlights

The rainbow on the right-hand side is equipped with dimmable LED backlights. Perfect for listening sessions in the dark.

Unique acrylic tonearm

The Dark Side Of The Moon turntable features an 8.6-inch acrylic tonearm with spring anti-skating.

Heavyweight

Heavy 10 mm glass plater combined with a solid aluminium subplatter. The stainless steel axle of the heavy aluminium subplatter sits in a brass bushing.
