Pro-Ject 6 PerspeX Turntable Review w/ Upscale Audio's Kevin Deal

www.upscaleaudio.com/products...
The isolation magic of magnetic levitation, that cool acrylic transparent plinth, a Corian sub-chassis, and a choice of counterweights make this one bad-ass turntable from the largest manufacturer of turntables in the world.

I only know Deal from years and years of reading audio rags and observing his ads. Based on that I give him my award of being the coolest audio salesman in the Universe. Guy's real and has a healthy dose of wicked humor.

I love this guy’s energy!

Love that magnetic platform. You mentioned highs causing vibrations. I run two Sunfire subs in my bedroom system. When I would turn up the volume with bassy music, I would get all sorts of distortion from the subs shaking the floor. I’m going to seriously consider this thing!

[@robertlewis7305]

I have this turntable. It's awesome. The 9cc EVO Arm is great, and tracks wonderfully. A few naysayers around, but they're all idiots. If you don't own it, or you haven't used it....shut up. You know not of what you speak.

[@zagijimzoo]

when you tapped the base it still vibrated the tonearm!

[@gotham61]

That ain't Corian. Corian does not come in clear. That is acrylic, presumable Perspex brand acrylic, hence the name.

[@i2ambler2002]

The sub chassis is corian.

Do I need a platter mat with my unit? The 6 PerspeX

[@joshpeters7392]

I'd love to buy this table - but the cost is 39% higher 3 years later? Were there any design changes made to it or a new version released to justify that big of a change in price? (The Marantz TT is a close competitor to this TT and cost 1599 - went to 1799 over the same time period.)

[@douglassmcclellan8424]

Great review!! Can you recommend a couple MC phono pre-amps to match this up with the Sumiko cart?

[@ricmech9128]

Manley Chinook, I'm currently running my Sumiko Black Bird with it.

[@richpaul6853]

Don’t get your Rolex too close to those magnets!😂 Seriously, that’s quite a unique method of isolating the turntable. How much does it weigh?

Is your favorite movie Valley Girls?

[@patbassman8251]

Its looks to me like they have corrected all the issues that my turntable has , the Experience acrylic , motor hum , distortion on the high end , lack of bass and sterile , and the motor suspension belt that snaps every week , basically a dud.

[@RumblestripDotNet]

Someone paid attention to comments in the last video! :D

[@kentonkirkpatrick5225]

Swept the awards? Expanding across the street? Firing on all cylinders!

[@greggb681]

:35 Religious cult 😂 👏 Dude, I fucking love you!

[@adambrown8867]

Is that an MDF platter on a $1800 turntable? Rega P6 anyone? At 1800 clams it should start with acrylic, or delrin platter. No thanks if its MDF for that kind of money. Can a Rega type or SME type arm mount be put on it? Is it wall wart PSU?

[@user-pc6mi7cu2d]

I came to here about the table good info but could have done without the Scientology part

[@joeyg7458]

That carbon fiber tone evolution tone arm is crap..Looks nice but crap

[@marcschmitz2318]

How is it crap? Even Linn that makes awesome tonearms have used the project carbon fiber over aluminum tonearms on their decks. I have the classic with the 9" arm just has a different counter weight and i can throw any cart id like on that thing. Doesnt hurt its looks awesome but no clue why you consider it crap.

[@joeyg7458]

For one it has a lifter that is unusable if it’s that good they should put effort into making it available with a decent lifter.BTW do you have a video of you throwing cartridges at it..How far away do you stand...🤭.

[@robertlewis7305]

Incorrect.

[@andrewlittleboy8532]

Linn don't use it anymore.

[@Enchurito]

He talks for 7 minutes about a turntable, doesn't actually turn it on or play a record on it. What a crap review.
