Austrian Supplier Pro-Ject Bows $439 Turntable Designed With Rolling Stones

Austrian hi-fi company Pro-Ject Audio Systems debuted a turntable designed in partnership with The Rolling Stones, said Henley Audio, which exclusively distributes the brand in the U.K. Adorned with the “lips” logo first commissioned by Mick Jagger in 1970, the high-end turntable will be “a real collector’s item” for its “cosmetic appeal alone,” said the distributor. It has a synchronous motor and belt-drive system and is finished with a sturdy metal platter and an 8.6-inch aluminum tone arm with Ortofon OM 10 cartridge, it said. The turntable is available in a high-gloss black or white finish, it said. It’s priced at 329 pounds ($439) in the U.K. Pro-Ject representatives didn’t comment Friday on U.S. availability or pricing.
