Austrian Hi-Fi specialist Pro-Ject Audio Systems has announced the Metallica Limited Edition turntable.
Designed in partnership with the world-conquering heavy metal band, the deck combines an eye-catching design with audiophile construction.
Handmade in Europe, the collector’s item features a suitably heavy MDF plinth with unique Metallica design, and mirror finished, metal top plate. A glass platter ensures Pro-Ject Metallic graphics remain in full view when it’s not spinning discs.
The turntable also boasts a diamond-cut aluminium sub-platter, which adds weight, to provide additional damping of noise and unwanted resonances.
