The Essential II Digital is a plug-and-play turntable with a difference. Its built-in phono stage features an optical output that means it can feed a digital signal to all manner of modern-day soundbars and wireless speakers.

Pro-Ject has become well known over the past decade, primarily for its excellent Debut entry-level record players, but also its more ambitious, stylish RPM range. The Essential II Digital sits closer to the Debut models in its design and build.

It has a glossy rectangular plinth – available in black, white or red – that houses the bearing, the motor with a pulley stepped for 33/45rpm, the tonearm and the built-in phono pre-amplifier. An on/off switch sits on the left side.

The platter simply slips onto the bearing and a silicone belt is stretched around the platter and over the pulley to drive the turntable. A felt mat is supplied to pop on top of the platter.

Fitting the belt can be a little frustrating because of the platter’s shallow depth, but you shouldn’t have to do it often. Very much on the upside, the pulley sits next to the platter, rather than beneath it, so switching speeds for 33 or 45rpm records is super-easy – simply hook a finger around the drive belt and pop it up or down the pulley.
