Pro-Ject ACRYL-IT Platter

Overview

The Pro-Ject Acryl-It platter is a direct replacement for the metal platter on the Debut, E1, T1, and 1Xpression turntables, made from acrylic with a satin-finished surface. Acrylic is acoustically inert, so it leaves less room for the platter resonance that a metal platter can add to the signal.

Because acrylic doesn't need a felt mat to damp resonance the way metal does, your record sits directly on the acrylic surface with nothing in between — which also cuts down on the static buildup that felt mats are prone to. A dent for the record label keeps the label itself from touching the platter.

Crafted in Europe, the Acryl-It is a straightforward swap for anyone looking to tune the sound of an existing compatible Pro-Ject turntable without replacing the whole deck.

Simcoe Audio Video Insight

We recommend the Acryl-It for owners of a compatible Debut, E1, T1, or 1Xpression turntable who want a meaningful, affordable upgrade over the stock metal platter — it's one of the simplest sound-improvement swaps available for these decks.

Your record sits directly on the satin-finished acrylic surface, reducing the static buildup common with felt mats.

Direct Fit for Compatible Models

A straightforward swap for the stock metal platter on Debut, E1, T1, and 1Xpression turntables.

Buyer's Guide

Who It's For

  • Debut, E1, T1, and 1Xpression owners looking for a meaningful sound upgrade without replacing the turntable.
  • Listeners bothered by static from a felt mat who want to eliminate it entirely.
  • Anyone chasing a cleaner, less coloured low end from their existing turntable.

How It Compares

The Acryl-It targets the same goal as a mat upgrade like the Leather-It or Cork-It, but goes further by replacing the platter itself rather than just what sits on top of it — making it the better choice for owners who want to address platter resonance directly rather than just changing the record's contact surface.

Pro-Ject ACRYL-IT Platter FAQs

What improvements can I expect after installing the Pro-Ject Acryl-It platter on my turntable?

Acrylic is an acoustically inert material, so it leaves less room for the resonance a metal platter can add to your turntable's sound. Because your record sits directly on the acrylic surface with no felt mat needed, it also eliminates the static buildup that felt mats are prone to.

Is the Pro-Ject Acryl-It platter compatible with all Pro-Ject turntable models?

The Pro-Ject Acryl-It platter is designed as a direct replacement for the stock metal platter on the Debut, E1, T1, and 1Xpression turntables. It's essential to verify your specific model before purchasing, since Pro-Ject makes other platter upgrades tailored to different turntable lines.

Does the Pro-Ject Acryl-It platter require any additional maintenance compared to standard platters?

The Pro-Ject Acryl-It platter is relatively low-maintenance. However, it's recommended to clean it periodically to prevent dust buildup, which can affect sound quality. Using a soft, lint-free cloth and a gentle cleaning solution is advisable.


Will installing the Pro-Ject Acryl-It platter affect the tonearm's alignment?

Some users have observed that installing the Acryl-It platter can slightly raise the tonearm, potentially affecting its alignment. It's advisable to check and, if necessary, adjust the tonearm's alignment after installation to maintain optimal performance.
