SoundStage!HI-FI awarded the RPM 10 Carbon Silver

US, 12.2018
A limited-edition version of the RPM 10 Carbon, which itself is very dark colored. Only 50 Carbon Silvers will be made.
If you’re in the same boat as me about getting a new turntable, this could be what pushes you over the edge.

•  The RPM 10 Carbon exhibited
Pro-Ject’s even hand, and their careful mission statement of accurately reproducing music without editorializing on it.

•  the most endearing quality of the RPM 10 Carbon was the way it imbued music with weight and power.

•  I was blown away by the depth and control the RPM 10 Carbon dredged up.

•  Huge depth and planet-spinning control emanate from this turntable. Its ability to wrap the music around its little finger absolutely transfixed me.

•  I could feel the RPM 10 Carbon quietly sitting back, an impassive, unmoving anvil on which the cartridge can ply its extraction of nano-level information from the groove.

•  The music had whatever character it had on the recording.

•  The RPM 10 Carbon was able to untangle such complicated music without mush or confusion.

•  It was more of a feeling of a larger acoustic and instruments of bigger, more realistic apparent size.

•  I‘ve found the love of my audiophile life. If you’re still looking for yours, do not ignore this turntable.

The RPM 10 Carbon uses a new extra heavy chassis which features a special CNC machined MDF plate that incorporates hard resin coated steel pellets to form an extra heavy precise sandwich construction. A special complex heat treatment and a carbon surface coating ensures superior low resonance levels. The mass-loaded chassis is effectively decoupled from its surface via the included Ground it Carbon and its magnetic feet. With two magnets located in the feet, the turntable is practically floating. The studs in the feet are only used for keeping them centered. Due to this unique feature the turntable is perfectly decoupled from the surface it is placed on. Combined with a new special polished aluminium platter with internal TPE damping and a vinyl layer on top, the inverted ceramic main bearing delivers an absolute stable turntable speed with extra low rumble. The extra heavy outboard motor unit is equipped with a precise motor control and features a built-in switch between 33 & 45 rpm. Last but not least the non-compromise 10“ Evo tonearm with conical carbon-fibre armtube and inverted bearing design ensures perfect tracking, even with demanding cartridges. Highly flexible top-grade copper internal wiring. Delivered with topgrade 5P phono cable „Connect it CC“ with RCA plugs (XLR as an option).
