Vinyl Playback with Modern Convention
The T2 W is Pro-Ject's bold and successful undertaking of combining nostalgic, vinyl listening with the modern convenience of wireless digital connectivity. The T2 W turntable is belt-driven with a 9" tonearm, electronic speed control module, and a premium Sumiko MM cartridge. But the magic in the T2 W is its integrated wireless capability that allows for networked streaming of Hi-Fi vinyl bliss, even at lossless 48kHz/24-bit FLAC output. The icing on the digital vinyl cake is the ability to manage it all via 'Pro-Ject's Control' app. Pro-Ject's innovation and approach to quality with the T2 W earned them a seat at EISA's "Best of" table with best Vinyl System Product of 2023-2024.
Stream Vinyl Anywhere
The T2 W builds upon Pro-Ject's highly acclaimed T1 formula while introducing innovative Wi-Fi streaming tech. This feature enables seamless streaming to a wide range of modern network-enabled audio devices like hi-fi streamers, network-enabled A/V receivers and contemporary streaming loudspeakers. The T2 W is multi-room capable, allowing for hundreds of audio streams to multiple receiving devices - you'll be hard-pressed to strain its multi-core CPU or struggle with Wi-Fi bandwidth performance issues.
The latest Wi-Fi, WLAN and 2×2 MIMO standards have been added, and the T2 W can either stream in standard compressed format (most compatible) or in lossless 24bit/48kHz for select high-end streamers. The Pro-Ject Control App offers a fast and intuitive experience with easy BLE functional setup for a simple start.
High-Quality Materials
The elegantly crafted CNC-machined plinth is larger and more massive than its T1 big brother. The T2 W is available in 3 finishes: gloss black, satin white and walnut laminate with no plastic components! Thoughtful design eliminates hollow spaces, preventing unwanted chassis resonance. The T2 W also uses a thicker, heavier glass platter, ensuring a zero-resonance design that effectively eliminates the shortcomings associated with plastic or light-weight steel alternatives. Complementing turntable isolation feet separate the T2 W from ambient vibrations present in the vicinity of your hi-fi system.
Speed Control, Motor & Drive System
The motor-driven belt drives a newly designed sub-platter exclusive to Pro-Ject's T-line. The T2 W features Pro-Ject's well-established, electronically-regulated precision-speed AC motor in contrast to most alternatives relying upon unregulated DC motors with wide speed fluctuations. It also features electronic speed-switching between 33 & 45rpm, resulting in a low-noise, highly-stable drive system for the 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 design limits unwanted resonance and is a big improvement over other detachable, screw-fastened or glued headshells! The T2 W also includes the latest adjustable spring-based anti-skating mechanism for easier setup and optimal performance of your 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. This is considered to be a necessity in order to maximize performance over Wi-Fi, provide unrivaled audio performance, and maximize longevity. Supplied with a high-value Sumiko Rainier MM cartridge ($149 value), this is a true hi-fi playback system with no design compromises.
