Pro-Ject conquers the entry-level segment of the plastic class with a high-quality alternative that comes complete with an arm and Ortofon cartridge. The new Elemental is fully "plug'n'play." No tedious assembly of counterweights or anti-skating is necessary, as everything is already pre-set. The new low-mass tonearm is specifically optimized for the also pre-mounted Ortofon OM cartridges. All the buyer has to do is unpack, remove the platter transport lock, place the belt around the platter, remove the needle guard, and connect it. The only thing that is plastic is the needle guard!.
