"The latest version of the long-running Debut remains a winner. Recommended." What Hi-Fi Sound & Vision magazine 5-star review.
Engineering from a class above For some time now, the Pro-Ject Debut has been a near default choice in the budget turntable market - and for good reason. Rather than adding fancy automated mechanisms, Pro-Ject has always concentrated on giving the best engineering quality possible for the money. Following on from other award-winning Pro-Ject Debut turntables, the Debut Carbon DC offers a stunning specification with sound quality to match.
Carbon fibre tone-arm The key feature with the Debut Carbon is the addition of a carbon fibre tone-arm tube. Usually only found on much more expensive turntables, a carbon fibre tone-arm tube provides significant benefits to the sound quality. Being stiffer than steel, the tone arm is more rigid. This helps convey the music more accurately as there's also reduced arm resonance. In short, the music sounds tighter, punchier and more detailed than before.
Tweaks taken from the SE model The revised Debut Carbon comes with a larger and more stable platter, providing a more solid bass response with added weight, while improved motor dampening using Sorbothane helps give better isolation. In terms of sound quality, isolating the motor means less background noise and a more dynamic and revealing sound.
Engineered for purity of sound The rigid plinth with anti-vibration feet is ideal in providing a similarly taut sound quality. The motor itself is decoupled to further reduce vibration. Using a brass bearing housing and stainless steel axle, the platter hub is superbly engineered and built to close tolerances for fine sound and longevity. There's also a good quality Ortofon cartridge included, so it's ready to go straight out of the box.
Updated styling With its gloss black plinth, the Debut Carbon looks far classier than previous Debut III models. Combined with its high quality engineering, this Pro-Ject turntable really does give the impression that it comes from the class above.
For quality vinyl replay, pure and simple, there's nothing to beat the Debut Carbon DC at this price.

Great value turntableI bought the turntable nearly two weeks ago and I am very pleased. It's good value and is a good build quality. I am trying to get into vinyl after years of CDs and cassettes. I have played a couple of new albums and my old small vinyl collection which is 30+ years in age. All sound remarkably good.

Great sound and beautiful designI bought this record player as a present for my boyfriend on Christmas. I have been reading reviews and comparing products but this one looked the best and I am glad I chose it. He is delighted by it and we have been enjoying playing our vinyl collection over the holidays.

Great turntable after initial problem.Bought online to replace my 41 year old Technics SL-220.
Connected up to my Marantz PM6006 amplifier and dissapointed to hear a hum from speakers which got louder as volume turned up. After trying different things realised it was the supplied power source causing the problem. Purchased the Pro-Ject High Power IT Power Supply and hum now gone.
Very pleased with the Debut Carbon DC now but disappointed I had a problem out of the box.
Included 6 year warranty a nice touch.
