The Pro-Ject Signature 12.2 turntable is a high-end piece of audio equipment suited towards the needs and preferences of audiophiles to provide them with the perfect way to listen to their favorite vinyl records.
Coming in at $14,999.99, the unit features a belt-driven design that weighs in at 81.5-pounds that will ensure the utmost attention to precision playback. The unit is handcrafted with around 100 components that have been CNC-machined in-house that combine to create a sound system with an artistic profile. The system takes two days to be assembled and hand-polished, which results in a unit that appears more like an industrial work of art than just a way to play records.
The Pro-Ject Signature 12.2 turntable is slated to start shipping in November 2024.
