MISTELBACH, AUSTRIA (May 19, 2022) – The Metallica Team chose Pro-Ject as their partner to collaborate for the Metallica-themed record player, continuing the brand’s proud tradition of collaborations with artists.
Pro-Ject’s design team treated the surface of the new turntable with a mirror-finished metal logo contour to give the player its distinctive look, a bold aesthetic that resonates with the iconic rock band. The S-shaped tonearm is fitted with a detachable headshell to allow quick cartridge changes, includes a factory installed and aligned Pro-Ject Pick it S2 C cartridge. Tracking force, anti-skating and VTA are all adjustable to offer flexibility and position the Metallica Limited Edition Turntable as a true audiophile investment.

Pro-Ject Audio Systems was founded by one of Austria’s leading high-end audio distributors, Heinz Lichtenegger, in early 1991. A genuine music lover and a dyed-in-the-wool audiophile, Heinz challenged the common “cost-no- object” approach to analog audio equipment by manufacturing turntables, tonearms, and accessories at a reasonable price without compromising build quality or sonic performance. With his passion for high-end audio fueling a desire to take a familiar industry in a new direction, Heinz proceeded to use Pro-Ject Audio Systems as a locomotive to bring high-end gear to the masses. By adhering to that philosophy while still only using quality electronic components that deliver sound that far exceeds their stature, the engineers at Pro-Ject redefined what is possible in high-end audio and proven that great things do come in small packages.
