Review & Description

Designed to look and perform like no other affordable turntable, the Pro-Ject RM-1.3 is a "plug 'n' play" package that provides, right out of the box, everything you need to enjoy your records. Featuring a Sumiko Pearl moving magnet cartridge that is factory mounted for your convenience, the RM-1.3 delivers musical fidelity that belies its price. A resonance-optimized MDF platter with a felt mat rests upon a three-point MDF plinth with an isolated motor assembly optimized for low noise and speed stability.

The RM-1.3 incorporates an inverted chrome plated stainless steel axle that rests on a polished steel bearing in a bronze housing for low wow and flutter and increased speed accuracy. Three nylon cone feet further reduce noise and vibration.

A single-piece, fixed headshell, 9-inch S-shaped tonearm features hardened stainless steel bearings and a rigid aluminum tube to provide superb tracking. Accurate adjustment of both VTA and azimuth is easily accomplished. Detachable RCA interconnect cables are included.
