About The Pro-Ject T2 W Wi-Fi Turntable

The T2 W intelligently enhances the highly acclaimed Pro-Ject T1 formula while introducing innovative Wi-Fi strea­ming technology. This ground breaking feature enables seamless streaming to a wide range of modern net­work-enabled audio devices, including Sonos devices, Hi-Fi streamers, network-enabled home theatre receivers, and con­temporary streaming loudspeakers. Such versatility em­powers you to effortlessly integrate the T2 W into any living space, taking modern lifestyle concepts to an en­tirely new level.

Network Streaming: Pro-Ject have added the latest Wi-Fi technology into the package, including all the latest WLAN standards and 2x2 MIMO allowing for theoretical speeds which are faster than modern, typical internet connections. And with MIMO you get maximum signal stability and protection against package and data loss. All this is necessary, because with the T2 W you can either stream in Pro-Ject’s stan­dard compressed format – enabling maximum compati­bility – or in 24bit/48kHz lossless, for selected high-end streamers like the Pro-Ject Stream Box S2 Ultra. All this is multi-room capable as well, meaning you could send hund­reds of audio streams to as many receiving devices as you like, before the T2 W multi-core CPU or Wi-Fi band­width start to crackle down. The new “Pro-Ject Con­trol” App offers a fast and intuitive user experience, while the Wi-Fi setup can be effortlessly accomplished through modern BLE functionality, simplifying the setup process.

Highest Quality Materials: The elegantly crafted CNC-machined plinth has been expanded in size to enhance stability and is available in striking finishes such as Gloss Black, Satin White, or Walnut. It boasts a construction free of plastic com­ponents and meticulous manufacturing that eliminates any hollow spaces within, effectively preventing unwan­ted vibrations within the chassis. Furthermore, the glass platter in the T2 W has been made heavier and thicker compared to its predecessor, ensuring a zero-resonan­ce design that effectively eliminates the shortcomings associated with plastic or lightweight steel alternatives. Complementing these improvements, purpose-selected turntable feet effectively isolate the T2 W from ambient vibrations present in the vicinity of your hi-fi system.

Tonearm & Anti-Skating: The tonearm on the T2 W has been improved with a longer arm tube. With its 9” effective length and stiff aluminium construction, this one-piece tonearm also features new updated low-friction bearings to accom­modate the increased length and diameter for absolute accuracy in use. Besides the clean and stylish looks, the integrated headshell won‘t cause any additional vibra­tions either, and is a big improvement over other de­tachable, screwed-on or glued-on headshells! The T2 W also comes with an adjustable spring-ba­sed anti-skating mechanism that optimizes performan­ce and extracts the utmost potential from your cartridge.

Speed Control, Motor & Drive: The motor and drive system in the T2 W remain identical to those found in the T1. The motor drives a belt system, connected to the newly designed sub-platter exclusive to the T-line. This sub-platter is mounted on an ultra-pre­cise 0.001mm main bearing with a hardened steel axle and brass bushing. Where most alternative products may use un-regulated DC motors with wide speed fluc­tuations, the T2 W features Pro-Ject’s proven system of an electronically regulated, precision-speed AC motor. The T2 W also comes with electronic speed switching between 33 and 45 RPM. The result is a low-noise, stable drive system for the turntable.

Completely New 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 level. This was considered a necessity in order to maximize the Wi-Fi performance. Pro-Ject wanted a truly stunning phono stage to match and give the T2 W unrivalled longevity and audio performance. Supplied with a high-value Ortofon 2M Red MM cartridge, this is a true hi-fi playback system with no corners cut.

Semi-Balanced Phono Cable: Like the T1, the T2 W is then finished with super shiel­ded, semi-symmetrical, low-capacitance phono cab­les, purpose-designed by Pro-Ject – not off-the shelf RCA cables. There is also a dust cover for extra protecti­on and a felt mat to protect your records.

Our Take

Someone had to do it. Bluetooth turntables have been with us for a while now but this is the first time we’ve encountered a Wi-Fi enabled turntable and we think it’s pretty cool. Of course, being a Pro-Ject, the design, construction and sound quality are all top notch, but we think the prospect of being able to stream your vinyl to all sorts of Wi-Fi enabled products like home theatre receivers and wireless home speakers is going to be the main attraction here. Good on you Pro-Ject.
