{"product_id":"prj-debutcarbon973","title":"Pro-Ject Debut Carbon EVO Turntable with Ortofon 2M Red","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Debut Carbon EVO is what happens when Pro-Ject takes an already-right turntable and does the engineering work they skipped the first time. The original Debut Carbon was the deck that introduced a generation to the idea that a sub-$500 turntable could take records seriously. The EVO keeps everything that made it work — the 8.6\" carbon fiber sandwich tonearm, the clean motor isolation, the MDF plinth — and addresses the shortcuts: improved platter, better isolation feet, electronic speed switching. The result is a turntable that sounds like it costs more than it does, which is the only thing that actually matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIt ships with the Ortofon 2M Red. That's not an afterthought — the 2M Red is a genuine moving magnet cartridge that tracks well, images properly, and won't embarrass itself on a good system. Most decks at this price come with something worse. The pairing is intentional and it works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFor the customer who wants to start right and not start over: this is the deck. For the customer upgrading from a budget table that was making them cringe: same answer. For the customer who bought something worse elsewhere and wants to fix it: this is what they should have bought the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eDue to size and weight, this item may incur an additional shipping surcharge and is listed as Store Pick Up Only.
