VT-E
The VT-E is Pro-Ject?s first ever vertical turntable, and its innovative design makes it something truly special to own. Not only can it be installed easily on a desktop or a wall, but the VT-E is also available in three different finishes to perfectly suit your own home environment, and is even available with Bluetooth output.

The VT-E is based on the popular Elemental turntable design, which has won plaudits around the world for its great sound and affordable price. Like the Elemental, the VT-E has a pre-set tonearm and Ortofon OM 5E cartridge, so all you need to do to get spinning is install the belt and platter, then plug it into your turntable-ready hi-fi system. Turntable set-up does not need to be complicated or arduous, and VT-E proves that.

The VT-E plinth and platter are made from acoustically neutral medium-density fibreboard, and the supplied record clamp ensures the record does not slip on the spindle during playback. When mounting on a desk, the supplied feet and back-support create a sturdy tripod that isolates well from external vibrations. Alternatively when mounting on a wall the supplied mounting kit ensures a reliable fixing to the wall’s surface.

The VT-E’s motor is the same proven design as found in other Pro-Ject turntables, and boasts a built-in AC generator for reliable speed stability and minimal noise. The tonearm is the same aluminium design found on the Elemental, but its specially-designed spring mechanism allows for accurate tracking of the record, even though it’s being played vertically. The VT-E is supplied with a set of pre-terminated Connect-IT E phono cables, for reliable connection to an external phono stage. The overall result is a true lifestyle turntable like nothing else, but one that works on real hi-fi principles.

  • Precision machined MDF plinth for reduced resonance transfer between components
  • Manual speed change between 33 and 45 RPM
  • MDF platter for reduced resonance and added weight
  • Pre-Set 8.6" tonearm
  • Factory-mounted Ortofon OM 5E cartridge with elliptical diamond stylus

What Hi-Fi review the Pro-Ject Audio VT-E Turntable

"Placing the needle on the groove reveals that while the Pro-Ject may look rather unusual it is certainly not merely a gimmick. In fact it has a tidy presentation with a fair amount of punch to it."

Audio Appraisal , June 2016

Audio Appraisal review the Pro-Ject Audio VT-E

"In summary, the VT-E is another Excellent product and a welcome addition to Pro-Ject’s lineup, and one that is quite unique in today’s market. Not only is it just plain cool to look at and display, not to mention a great conversation piece, it remains a functional turntable that holds up well against the competition, sounding as good as anything else at this price. A fantastic effort from Pro-Ject and one which I wholeheartedly applaud. Highly recommended."

Paul Rigby , The Vinyl Factory , September 2016

Vinyl Factory review the Pro-Ject Audio VT-E

"The presentation is quite focused with an impressive precision within the upper mids. Strummed guitars will impress, for example, while banks of strings are infused with air and space while the bass has the admirable element of impact."

If you're short on space or want a real statement piece then the VT-E is perfect. The downforce and anti-skate are all preset so the turntable just works, meaning you don't need to worry about anything other than the music. A great underrated point about the VT-E is that it is essentially a display unit as well as a record player - showcasing your favourite albums for all to see.

  • Many of our turntables may have multiple compatible counterweights available. The counterweight you actually need is the one that allows you to balance your existing cartridge while ideally sitting near the tonearm bearing when fully installed.

    If your counterweight sits right at the back of the tonearm, it runs the risk of introducing some micro-vibrations, so aiming for a counterweight where your cartridge weight is in the lower range of the supported weights is ideal.

    To help you make the right decision, we've produced a comprehensive list of all our tonearms and counterweights
