LOUDSPEAKERS

Your loudspeakers contain a large number of precision built moving parts. These parts require playing time initially to develop their maximum smoothness and extension. Very audible improvements can be observed during about 30 hours of playing. Additional improvements will be evident after 100 hours of playing time, at which point the speakers have reached their full musical potential.

POSITIONING

Room acoustics and positioning of the speakers within the room have an important effect on sound quality. To find the optimal position for your speakers we offer the following hints:

FREE AIR SET-UP

If the room is large and space permits, allow a minimum of 1 meter away from the rear wall (the wall behind the spea- kers). Small movements of the speaker forwards and backwards will establish where a speaker sits most com- fortably. Find the location that gives a full balance without sounding heavy.

Bach specifications

Pro-Ject Bach is an innovative turntable designed for audiophiles who appreciate a combination of classic aesthetics and modern technology. This high-fidelity audio device has carved a niche for itself in the vinyl community, resonating with both seasoned collectors and newcomers alike.

One of the standout features of the Pro-Ject Bach is its meticulous craftsmanship. The turntable is constructed using high-quality materials, resulting in a solid and stable platform that minimizes unwanted vibrations. The plinth is often made of MDF or a similar dense material, which not only enhances durability but also contributes to improved sound quality by dampening resonances that could interfere with audio playback.

In terms of technology, the Pro-Ject Bach employs a precision belt drive system. This method reduces motor noise and vibration that can adversely affect sound quality. The low-noise DC motor is electronically controlled for optimal speed stability, ensuring that your records play at the correct pitch every time. Users can switch between 33 and 45 RPM speeds with ease, catering to a wide array of vinyl collections.

The tonearm design on the Pro-Ject Bach is another highlight. It features an aluminum tonearm that is both lightweight and rigid, promoting better tracking of the grooves. The tonearm's design minimizes friction, which can lead to a more accurate reproduction of the music. Additionally, the turntable typically comes equipped with a high-quality cartridge, often a moving magnet type, which is ideal for balancing performance and affordability.

Aesthetically, the Pro-Ject Bach shines with its sleek lines and elegant finishes. Available in various colors, it can seamlessly integrate into any home decor. Whether set up in a dedicated listening room or as part of a living space, it adds a touch of sophistication.

Moreover, the Pro-Ject Bach's user-friendly features make it accessible to all vinyl enthusiasts. Its easy setup process allows for quick installation, and the option for an adjustable tracking force ensures optimal performance with different records.

In summary, the Pro-Ject Bach merges traditional design with modern audio technology, delivering an exceptional listening experience for vinyl lovers. Its robust construction, advanced drive system, and artistic appeal make it a top choice for anyone looking to explore the rich world of vinyl music.
