Features

• Brandnew Network Streaming
  We have added the latest Wi-Fi technology into the package, including all the latest WLAN standards. The T2 W can either stream in our standard compressed format – enabling maximum compatibility – or in 24bit/48kHz lossless, for selected high-end streamers like our Stream Box S2 Ultra. To check if your streaming gear is compatible with our T2 W or can even play the lossless stream, check out our in depth FAQ section down below!
  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.
• Built from the Highest-Quality Materials
  Building on the T1, the elegantly crafted CNC-machined plinth is larger and more massive to enhance stability. It’s available in three striking finishes: gloss black, satin white and walnut laminate. It boasts no plastic components. Thoughtful design eliminates hollow spaces, preventing unwanted resonance within the chassis. The T2 W also uses a thicker, heavier glass record platter, ensuring a zero-resonance design that effectively eliminates the shortcomings associated with plastic or light-weight steel alternatives. Complementing these improvements are purpose-selected turntable isolation feet that separate the T2 W from ambient vibrations present in the vicinity of your hi-fi system.
• Speed Control, Motor & Drive System
  The motor and drive system in the T2 W remain identical to those found in the T1. The motor drives a belt that in turn drives the newly designed sub-platter that’s exclusive to the T-line. This sub-platter is mounted on an ultra-precise (within 0.001mm) main bearing with hardened steel axle and brass bushing. Where most alternative products may use unregulated DC motors with wide speed fluctuations, the T2 W features our well-established, electronically-regulated precision-speed AC motor. The T2 W also comes with electronic speed-switching between 33 & 45rpm. The result is a low-noise, highly-stable drive system for the record platter.
• New Tonearm & Anti-Skate System
  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 newly updated low-friction bearings to accommodate the increased length and diameter, leading to absolute accuracy in operation. The one-piece design limits unwanted resonance and is a big improvement over other detachable, screwed-on or glued-on headshells! The T2 W also includes the latest adjustable spring-based anti-skating mechanism for easier setup and optimal performance of your phono cartridge.
• Premium Built-In Phono Stage
  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 quality. We considered this a necessity in order to maximize performance over Wi-Fi. We chose a truly stunning phono stage circuit to give the T2 W unrivaled audio performance & maximum longevity. Supplied with a high-value Sumiko Rainier MM cartridge, this is a true hi-fi playback system with no corners cut in its design.
• Where the magic happens.
  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. We considered this a necessity in order to maximize the Wi-Fi performance.
  We have added the latest Wi-Fi technology into the package, including all the latest WLAN standards and 2x2 MIMO allowing for theoretical speeds which are faster than modern, typical internet connections. And with MIMO we get maximum signal stability and protection against package and data loss. All this is necessary, because with the T2 W you can either stream in our standard compressed format – enabling maximum compatibility – or in 24bit/48kHz lossless, for selected high-end streamers like our Stream Box S2 Ultra.
• Hard Facts:
  • Glass Platter
    The glass platter follows our zero-resonance philosophy, avoiding the flaws of plastic or lightweight steel alternatives.
  • 33/45 High precision motor control
    The rocker switch on the side of the turntable allows you to change speeds with the push of only a single button.
  • Anti-Skating Spring-based
    The T2 W comes with a brand new adjustable spring-based anti-skating mechanism that optimizes its performance
  • Sumiko Rainier MM cartridge
    This cartridge skillfully places instruments & vocals right where they belong - hand-crafted in Japan!
  • Wi-Fi Vinyl Streaming, Easy Stream Control
    Use the Pro-Ject Control app to select where to stream to. And after that, just use the Stream Control button on the side to start playing to your previously selected streamer again.
  • High-Quality Phono Stage, Dual-stage split-passive MM phono preamp
    We wanted a truly stunning phono stage to match and give the T2 W unrivalled longevity and audio performance. The T2 W debuts a brand new phono preamp design for that reason!
  • 9" Aluminium Tonearm, One-piece construction
    With its 9” effective length and stiff aluminium construction, this one-piece tonearm also features new updated low-friction bearings to accommodate the increased length and diameter for absolute accuracy in use.
