The Beginning
Pro-Ject was founded in 1991, during the onslaught of the compact disc and CD players, with the mission to offer the best analogue experience for reasonable prices. In a time where the digital audio media had been on the rise, and vinyl was declared as outdated and dead, Heinz Lichtenegger kept his belief in the simple but best way to enjoy music – turntables.
Austria, a country of music.
Austria is more than just a list of famous composers; music is an integral part of its identity. What's special is the deep emotional connection that people have to music here. It's about experiencing it, not just listening to it.
The turntable as an instrument.
The instrument is a living piece of history. It speaks through the hands of the musician—and only here does the music truly come to life.
But the melody needs more than just a concert hall. It needs an echo, a second instrument to continue its story. Like the violin with its shape and soul, the turntable is also an instrument. It is the heart that brings the music back to life.
PRODUCTION
With cutting edge technologies and machines, we are able to create visually pleasing products without losing the eye for the finest details. In Czech Republic, we produce all our turntables from scratch, by hand and in house. From the tiniest screw to the chassis, everything is done by our technicians. A strict four step quality control ensures that everything works as intended. In Slovakia we manufacture micro sized high end audio components. We pride ourselves with products that have a long-lasting value and give our customers satisfaction in all their audio needs.
EU - Special Edition
With this exclusive special edition model, we celebrate our passion for hi-fi and our home. This turntable is more than just a hi-fi device—it's a statement. With its vibrant blue finish and the twelve golden stars of the European Union elegantly arranged on the top, it symbolizes our commitment to the highest level of European engineering. Experience immaculate sound combined with a unique, symbolic design.
Goals
Our aim is to get as many people as possible into the wonderful hobby that is HiFi audio and to deliver a real stereo experience for the lowest cost possible. The best way to start there is with a proper turntable. We want to give the customers back the right to choose what they need, without overblowing our products with unnecessary features. Here at Pro-Ject we strive to create astonishing products with impeccable value. We only use the best components for the price and manufacture our handmade goods solely in Europe. With an eye for future trends we are always trying to fit the needs of the market.

Our Headquarters in Austria.
The Pro-Ject Headquarters
The headquarters is located about 35km north of the Vienna city limits in the beautiful "Weinviertel" (wine quarter) region. After a one-year planning phase and 14 months of construction, it opened at the end of August 2017. Three buildings with different functions and tasks were built on a 12,200 m² plot of land. The 1,200 m² office area includes an elegant client reception area with a welcoming foyer and a flagship store. The heart of the building is a 300 m² atrium with green and water features.
Es lässt die Pro-Ject Produkte strahlen und wird so höchsten Ansprüchen an Effizienz und Ästhetik gerecht. Als Vorbild für das Gebäude dienten die Gehäuse der Pro-Ject Verstärker – schlicht & scharfkantig. Durch den Einsatz von Glasflächen wurden transparente und moderne Büroräume geschaffen. Die Außenfassade des Office-Bereiches spiegelt die Rillen einer Schallplatte wieder.
Listening rooms
In three listening rooms, Pro-Ject products can be experienced and tested. The flagship store serves as a model for Pro-Ject shops worldwide. In addition to the office spaces, there is a 130 m² development and service area.
