Pro-Ject 6PerspeX Balanced UK SuperPack
The exclusive Pro-Ject 6PerspeX Balanced SuperPack includes an uprated tonearm and cartridge.
Pro-Ject has unveiled a new enhanced turntable package exclusive to UK vinylistas - the 6PerspeX Balanced UK SuperPack.
Pro-Ject loves a perspex plinth. Earlier in the year, it fitted the 6PerspeX with a balanced connection and recently launched the brand-new XA B deck. Don't forget that it also closed last year with the limited-edition Perspective Final Edition.

Now, it has taken the already not-too-shabby standard 6PerspeX Balanced model and enhanced it by adding almost £1,000 worth of upgrades and improvements, elevating the model's performance and functionality and making it a “more visually appealing, ready-to-play solution.”
The new supercharged variant sits on a thick, transparent acrylic plinth mounted on three damped aluminium cones, while the Corian sub-chassis is magnetically isolated, sitting on three magnetic fields to reduce unwanted noise and vibrations affecting playback. This is rounded off by an MDF platter topped by a 4mm layer of vinyl that is “acoustically inert” and negates the need for a mat.
The AC drive motor of this belt-drive deck is housed in a solid assembly decoupled from the sub-chassis and powered by a DC/AC power generator. Pro-Ject says this facilitates cleaner, more stable power, resulting in superb rotational stability and minimal vibrations. The 6PerspeX Balanced UK SuperPack uses a button-controlled speed change for selecting 33 1/3 and 45 RPM.
The SuperPack's significant modification is Pro-Ject's new Pick It MC3 moving-coil cartridge, which is pre-installed on the business end of a new 9CC Evo High Gloss 9-inch tonearm with ABEC 7 ballrace tonearm bearings.
The turntable has RCA output connectors and a new MiniXLR balanced output. It ships with Pro-Ject's semi-balanced Connect it E Phono RCA turntable interconnect, while the upgradable 'True Balanced' option allows you to connect your deck to a compatible Pro-Ject balanced phono stage, such as the Applause Award-winning Tube Box DS3 B.
The Pro-Ject 6PerspeX Balanced UK SuperPack is available now in the UK, priced at £2,599.
