ESSENTIAL II DEMON BY PAROV STELAR

Audiophiler Designplattenspieler

This turntable represents 100 years of music history with 21st century sound quality!

With the sophisticated design of the album ‘The Demon Diaries’, Parov Stelar also proves that he again incorporates the sound of a century of music history and builds his own musical world. In cooperation with Parov Stelar, Pro-Ject Audio Systems offers this unique turntable as a limited collectors edition.

The main chassis is made from lightweight, but very stiff particle board. The Essential II Demon utilises a straight 8.6“ aluminium tonearm design made from a single piece of aluminium with sapphire bearings, which offers a „plug & play“ solution. Special feet effectively decouple the turntable from the surface. A quiet running synchronous motor with silicone belt is driving a low-resonance platter made from laminated particle board. A new motor control with DC power supply minimizes unwanted vibration effectively. The main platter bearing consists of a stainless steel spindle and a bronze bushing with Teflon bottom to secure low friction.
