The Coolest-Looking Turntable You'll Ever Own Is Also a High-End Playback Device: Limited to 1,000 Units in US, Pro-Ject Essential III Sgt. Pepper's Drum Features Stunning Beatles Graphics
Let your analog listening experience continue getting better all the time with the Pro-Ject Essential III Sgt. Pepper's Drum turntable – at once an irresistible salute to the Beatles and entry-level, high-end vinyl playback device. Based on the audio manufacturer's Essential III model, and limited to 1,000 units in the US, Essential III Sgt. Pepper's Drum immediately stands out in any crowd and will likely be the coolest-looking ‘table you (or anyone) ever own. Appointed with a graphically rich blue chassis and a remarkably sharp, colorfully accurate reproduction of the Sgt. Pepper logo showcased in the bass drum of the original album cover, Essential III Sgt. Pepper's Drum simply begs you to spin LPs. Better still, you can see the world-famous logo through the matte acrylic platter. The inclusion of the Beatles' script logo in the chassis' bottom left corner tops off the striking visual component.
It would be one thing if Essential III Sgt. Pepper's Drum only offered its unique Beatles-styled appearance. But this ‘table also touts audiophile sound quality for which Pro-Ject is renowned. Equipped with a pre-installed and factory-aligned Ortofon OM10 cartridge, diamond-cut aluminum pulley, upgraded motor control, enhanced bearing with stainless-steel spindle, resonance-damping decoupling feet, and a sturdy MDF chassis, Essential III Sgt. Pepper's Drum tracks and plays back LPs with absorbing precision and nuance-extracting detail. Its integrated DC-powered motor control minimizes vibration and affords excellent speed stability. You also get a Connect-It E, a phono cable with gold-plated connectors that far outperforms the signal-transmission quality of stock RCA versions. And because of the so-simple-anyone-can-do-it setup, you'll be enjoying music minutes after you unbox Essential III Sgt. Pepper's Drum. Well, maybe not – you might find yourself staring at its eye-popping looks for quite a while. It's that impressive.
So, sit back and let the evening go. You'll want to enjoy more than a day in the life with Essential III Sgt. Pepper's Drum. Whether you get one – or a few – to simply show off as pieces of art or to employ as playback devices, this is one turntable you'll never forget. 100% Music Direct Guaranteed.
