Acryl IT
Description
Pro-Ject Acryl IT is an upgrade that at first glance seems simple, but when you listen to it, it changes the character of the player noticeably and in a mature way.
An acrylic disc is not just “beautiful and transparent”. Its material is close to a vinyl record in terms of its properties. That is, the record lies on a surface that behaves with it as naturally as possible: without unnecessary vibration reflections, without a metallic aftertaste, without parasitic resonances. The sound becomes cleaner, the background is darker, and the silence between notes is deeper.
The bass becomes better controlled, the midrange opens up, voices sound more bodily and “alive”. The top becomes neater, without sharpness. This is not a “wow in 5 minutes” effect, but rather a feeling that the system has started to play more confidently, calmly, and maturely.
Another plus is the ability to listen without a slipmat. The record lies directly on the acrylic, which further improves contact and reduces microvibrations. And a plus is aesthetics. A transparent disc looks very stylish, especially with a backlight or a contrasting chassis. The player immediately looks more expensive.
The Pro-Ject Acryl IT is the perfect option for those looking to make their first serious upgrade to their Pro-Ject and hear a real difference without replacing the cartridge or tonearm. A small design change, but a big step towards a cleaner, more controlled and musical sound.
