AC/DC's Timeless Image Incorporates Turntable Technology from Pro-Ject Audio Systems
Pro-Ject Audio Systems Unveils Limited Edition AC/DC Turntable
Pro-Ject Audio Systems, a renowned name in the world of high-fidelity audio, has announced the release of a new addition to their Artist Series – the AC/DC Turntable. This latest offering is a testament to the brand's commitment to quality and their knack for creating unique, visually striking products.
The AC/DC Turntable is a product designed for record collectors, and it boasts a gloss black MDF plinth on three spiked feet. Its low resonance tonearm, specially designed for this edition, features a pair of slashed lighting strikes, one in red, and a smaller handle for lifting the arm onto the vinyl. The turntable's sub-platter is lit from within by a red LED, and it comes with a solid circular red glass platter, making it a standout piece in any vinyl collection.
The design of the AC/DC Turntable is heavily influenced by the band's iconic no-nonsense heavy metal imagery. It's the latest in a line of turntables Pro-Ject has released in partnership with iconic bands, following the Pink Floyd homage Dark Side of the Moon Turntable and the Metallica Edition turntable.
AC/DC's official store is currently well-stocked with vinyl re-issues of their extensive back catalogue, many of which were pressed on gold vinyl to celebrate the band's 50th anniversary in 2023. This collaboration between Pro-Ject and AC/DC is a perfect match for audiophiles and fans of the band alike.
Pro-Ject Audio Systems, founded in Austria in 1991, has a history of such partnerships and special editions. In addition to the band-themed turntables, they have also released the Pro-Ject X8 Evolution Special Edition turntable, a high-end, premium offering that stands out from their standard lines with special features and options tailored for aficionados.
However, most of Pro-Ject's releases focus on technological refinements or entry-level to audiophile quality, without explicit special branding. This makes the AC/DC Turntable a unique addition to their catalogue, offering a blend of audio quality and band-themed design.
With the AC/DC Turntable, Pro-Ject Audio Systems continues to push the boundaries of what a turntable can be, creating a product that is not only a piece of audio equipment but also a piece of art. For record collectors and AC/DC fans, this is a must-have addition to their collection.
This limited edition AC/DC Turntable by Pro-Ject Audio Systems is not only a product for vinyl enthusiasts, but also a gadget that merges technology and entertainment. With its unique design inspired by the band's iconic image and the integration of LED lighting, it serves as a perfect platform for enjoying high-fidelity music.
The collaboration between Pro-Ject Audio Systems and AC/DC has brought together technology and music in an engaging way, providing an awesome listening experience for fans and audiophiles alike, transforming their entertainment setup into a visual spectacle.
