Pro-Ject T2 W - Wi-Fi Streaming Turntable - Gloss Black

Taking Vinyl Playback to an Entirely New Level

The Pro-Ject T2 W turntable intelligently enhances Pro-Ject's highly acclaimed T1 turntable design while introducing the company's innovative Wi-Fi streaming technology.

This groundbreaking turntable feature enables seamless streaming to a wide range of network-enabled audio devices, including HiFi streamers, network-enabled home theater A/V receivers, and streaming loudspeakers. Such versatility empowers you to effortlessly integrate the T2 W into any living space, taking record listening to an entirely new level of performance.

Wi-Fi Network Streaming

Pro-Ject added the latest Wi-Fi technology to the T2 W, including all the latest WLAN standards and 2x2 MIMO, allowing for theoretical speeds which are faster than modern, typical internet connections. And with MIMO you get maximum signal stability and protection against data loss. All this is necessary, because with the T2 W you can either stream in standard compressed format – enabling maximum compatibility – or in 24bit/48kHz lossless for selected high-end streamers like Pro-Ject's Stream Box S2 Ultra.

All this is multiroom capable as well, meaning you could send hundreds of audio streams to as many receiving devices as you like, before the T2 W multi-core CPU or Wi-Fi bandwidth start to 'crackle down.' The new Pro-Ject Control App offers a fast and intuitive user experience, while the Wi-Fi setup can be effortlessly accomplished through modern BLE functionality, simplifying the setup process.

Highest Quality Materials

The elegantly crafted CNC-machined plinth has been expanded in size to enhance stability and is available in striking finishes such as High Gloss Black, Satin White, or Walnut. It boasts a construction free of plastic components and meticulous manufacturing that eliminates any hollow spaces within, effectively preventing unwanted vibrations within the chassis.

The glass platter of the T2 W is heavier and thicker compared to its predecessor, ensuring a zero-resonance design that effectively eliminates the shortcomings associated with plastic or lightweight steel alternatives. Complementing these improvements, purpose-selected turntable feet effectively isolate the T2 W from ambient vibrations present in the vicinity of your hi-fi system.

Speed Control, Motor, and Drive

The motor and drive system of the T2 W are identical to those found in the T1. The motor drives a belt system, connected to Pro-Ject's newly designed sub-platter exclusive to the T-line. This sub-platter is mounted on an ultra-precise 0.001mm main bearing with a hardened steel axle and brass bushing. Where most alternative products may use un-regulated DC motors with wide speed fluctuations, the T2 W features Pro-Ject's proven system of an electronically regulated, precision-speed AC motor.

The T2 W also comes with electronic speed switching between 33 and 45 RPM. The result is a low-noise, stable drive system for the turntable.

New Tonearm and Anti-Skating

The tonearm on the T2 W has been improved with a longer arm tube. With its 9" effective length and stiff aluminum construction, this one-piece tonearm also features new updated low-friction bearings to accommodate the increased length and diameter for absolute accuracy in use.

In addition to the clean and stylish looks, the integrated headshell won‘t cause any additional vibrations and is a big improvement over other detachable, screwed-on, or glued-on headshells.

The T2 W also comes with an adjustable spring-based anti-skating mechanism that optimizes performance and extracts the utmost potential from your cartridge.

Completely New Built-in Phono Stage

Pro-Ject wanted a truly stunning phono stage to match and give the T2 W unrivalled longevity and audio performance. The T2 W has a high-quality dual-stage split-passive MM phono preamp. This is the first time a Pro-Ject turntable has used an integrated phono-preamp of this level. Pro-Ject considered this a necessity in order to maximize the Wi-Fi performance.

Supplied with a high-value Sumiko Rainier MM cartridge, this is a true hi-fi playback system with no corners cut or compromises made.

Semi-Balanced Phono Cable, Dust Cover

Like the T1, the T2 W is then finished with super shielded, semi-symmetrical, low-capacitance phono cables, purpose-designed by Pro-Ject – not off-the shelf RCA cables.

There is also a dust cover for extra protection and a felt mat to protect your records.

EISA Award - Best Product 2023-2024 - Vinyl System

"The T2 W is an audacious attempt to marry analogue vinyl playback with digital convenience, and one that Pro-Ject manages to pull off with zest. At its core is a belt-drive turntable with 9in aluminium tonearm and Sumiko MM cartridge, plus electronic speed control, but elevating the T2 W is an integrated wireless module that lets owners stream their music to networked speakers and hi-fi systems. The ‘Pro-Ject Control’ app makes setup and operation easy, with options including lossless 48kHz/24-bit FLAC output and automatic streaming when you drop the needle. Spinning discs, while integrating the vinyl format into a ‘modern’ system, has never been easier."
