Project Acryl-IT Acrylic Platter - Product Description

The playback quality of vinyl can be significantly influenced by the material of the turntable platter - the disk on which the vinyl record sits during playback. Many vinyl enthusiasts and audiophiles swear by the sonic benefits of acrylic platters, making the Pro-Ject Acryl-IT Acrylic Platter an investment worth considering. This high-quality platter, made from dense acrylic material, offers an array of benefits, promising to transfigure your vinyl listening experience.

Material Quality

Dense Acrylic for Sound Improvement

The Acryl-IT platter is made of a dense acrylic material. This specially devised material provides a consistent and uniform resonance, which contributes positively to the sound quality. The dense acrylic effectively dampens unwanted vibrations, reducing the impact of external disturbances on the stylus. This results in a cleaner and more vivid audio output.

Vinyl to Platter Contact

Direct Contact for Enhanced Sound Quality

Another distinctive advantage of the Acryl-IT platter is the direct vinyl to platter contact it provides. The acrylic material allows the record to sit flat on the platter, removing the need for a slip mat. This direct contact avoids the static build-up usually experienced with felt mats and eliminates record slippage. The outcome is an improved sound quality, particularly in the bass and midrange.

Consistent Speed

Improved Stability and Reduced Flutter

The Pro-Ject Acryl-IT Acrylic Platter contributes to a more stable rotational speed. Its quality construction provides a good weight that helps maintain a consistent speed, reducing any unsteadiness and giving a better pitch stability. This leads to less wow and flutter, enhancing the overall sound performance of your vinyl records.

Aesthetic Advantage

Visual Appeal and Record Display

The Acryl-IT is as much an aesthetic upgrade as it is an audio upgrade. The transparent acrylic offers a sleek, modern look to your turntable setup while letting you fully appreciate your vinyl records’ artwork. When coupled with its sonic benefits, the visual enhancement provided by the Acryl-IT justifies its place in your turntable system.

Easy Installation

Plug-and-Play Design

Despite the significant advantages it offers, the Acryl-IT is surprisingly easy to install. Its plug-and-play design enables a straightforward installation process. The platter fits directly onto most standard turntables without needing additional tools or adjustments. Thus, the Acryl-IT offers effortless accessibility to improved sound quality.
