Description:
Don't expect to pay peanuts for this limited edition turntable from Pro-Ject

FULL STORY ======================================================================Pro-Ject
Peanuts turntable is based on the T1 BT Available from June 2025 for 579 (about $763 / AU$1,190) Built-in phono stage and Bluetooth transmission

This year marks the 75th anniversary of the very first Peanuts comic, and to mark it Pro-Ject has created a Peanuts-themed turntable with Charlie Brown on the acrylic record plate and music-inspired Peanuts panels on the turntable plinth. All you need to do is find an appropriate record to play on it, such as ahem Snoop-y Doggy Dogg.

Underneath the comic capers you'll find a belt-driven turntable based on Pro-Ject's excellent T1 BT turntables. That's the model with a built-in phono stage as well as Bluetooth transmission for transmitting to wireless speakers or headphones .

The Pro-Ject Peanuts turntable is hand-made in Europe and features a
precision CNC-machined chassis, and Pro-Ject's signature one-piece aluminum tonearm. It comes pre-fitted with an Ortofon OM 10 cartridge.

The Peanuts turntable is a limited-edition release and while it's based on
the T1 BT there are a few changes that acrylic record plate, for one, but there's also a newly designed sub-platter for the belt system. That's mounted into an ultra-precise 0.001mm main bearing with a hardened steel axle and brass bushing. The glass platter that sits beneath Charlie Brown's face is a heavy, zero-resonance design.

The turntable will be launched at High End Munich this week and will be available in June from Pro-Ject and authorized retailers. The official price is 579 / 599 (about $763 / AU$1,190) You might also like Meet Pro-Ject's new fully-automatic turntable Pro-Ject's new vinyl flattener will yes! flatten your vinyl Revered turntable maker Pro-Ject just unveiled a complete vinyl package with amp and speakers
