The Pro-Ject Stereo SET E1 pairs the Stereo Box E with an E1 turntable and Speaker Box 5E speakers. Using the Stereo Box's built-in phono stage, this system comes together as an affordable option for those wanting a small turntable system.


E1 Turntable 

The E1 Turntable features electronically controlled playback speeds of 33 and 45 RPM, ensuring ease of use and versatility. Its sub-platter drive system not only enhances convenience but also offers a sleek, clean appearance. The main plinth is crafted from wood and is mounted on anti-vibration feet, providing stability and minimising unwanted resonances.

Dive into the World of Vinyl

The E1 serves as an ideal entry point into the world of vinyl playback, accommodating various existing audio setups. With turntable-ready phono cables securely fixed beneath the tonearm, it connects effortlessly to amplifiers equipped with built-in phono stages. Inspired by other Pro-Ject designs, the E1 boasts a stylish CNC-machined composite fibre platform that enhances its anti-resonance properties. At its core, a precision belt drive system paired with a damped DC motor drives the new ABS polymer main platter, which features specially designed ridges for optimal performance. The tonearm, measuring 8.6 inches, utilises a one-piece aluminium tube and a two-point bearing assembly, providing low moving mass and excellent electrical isolation.

OM5E Cartridge

Finished with an Ortofon OM 5E cartridge and factory-set downforce and anti-skate settings, the E1 is designed for straightforward setup and immediate playback, making it perfect for music lovers who appreciate quality without complexity.

Stereo Box E

The Pro-Ject Stereo Box E is a budget-friendly, all-in-one HiFi amplifier designed for those seeking excellent audio quality without high costs. Crafted to deliver true HiFi stereo sound, the Stereo Box E features meticulously designed circuitry, often found in more expensive models. This compact amplifier maximises value, making it an ideal choice for music enthusiasts who want quality sound on a budget.

Connect Everything

Equipped for a wide range of audio sources, the Stereo Box E includes both analogue and digital inputs. It offers a phono RCA input for turntables, line inputs for CD players, and digital S/PDIF inputs (optical and coaxial) for devices such as TVs. Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX HD allows for high-quality wireless streaming from mobile devices, and a USB-C output powers modern streamers without the need for an additional power supply. This versatility makes the Stereo Box E adaptable to virtually any setup.

Durable Design and Expandable System

The Stereo Box E is built with a sturdy steel casing and an aluminium front panel, available in black or silver, which shields it from external interference. The amplifier is also modular, allowing users to expand their HiFi system easily. It’s compatible with Pro-Ject’s other components, including the CD Box E and Tuner Box S3 DAB+ for radio functionality, making it an ideal foundation for a fully integrated HiFi system.

Speaker Box 5 E

The Pro-Ject Speaker Box 5 E Speaker is expertly designed to pair perfectly with Pro-Ject Box amplifiers, making it an ideal choice for enthusiasts seeking synergy between components. Its compact size and competitive pricing enhance its appeal, while the speaker’s configuration includes a 1” silk dome tweeter and a 5” glass fibre bass/midrange unit, ensuring it delivers an impressive audio performance.

Upgraded Performance

The E version serves as an upgrade to the classic Box 5, boasting superlative sound quality characterised by low colouration and exceptional transparency. The frequency response spans from 60Hz to 20kHz, supported by a bass-ported cabinet that enhances low-end performance. Moreover, the well-braced cabinet is available in a variety of colours, allowing for aesthetic flexibility to suit different environments.

Advanced Components

At the heart of the Pro-Ject Speaker Box 5 E Speaker is a 1” silk dome tweeter, which ensures transparent and smooth high-frequency reproduction, extending up to 20kHz. The use of silk in the tweeter's construction contributes to a more natural sound signature. Furthermore, the crossover is built with high-quality components, with capacitors and inductors securely mounted on a PCB to minimise distortion, particularly in the midrange frequencies. Complementing the tweeter, the speaker features a highly rigid 5” fibre glass coned bass/midrange driver that reduces distortion even at high volumes, while a powerful motor magnet allows for remarkable bass output relative to its size.

The Stereo Set E1 is supplied with bare-wire speaker cables (RCA cables are included with the turntable).

Testimonials

Bought some Rega Kyte speakers, stands and chords from DB online and they were incredibly helpful. They updated my delivery address very quickly and recommended a longer cut of cables which they did complimentary. They also noticed I didn’t order with banana plugs so called me back to double check, which I did mean to order. When i had some issues connecting my cables and speakers, I called for some advice which they happily gave. Excellent service and next day delivery to London. Thoroughly recommend.

Probably one of the best companies in the world. They had to special order in the speakers which took a fair bit of time, which is totally understandable, but they kept in touch with me throughout the entire time with updates (even on a Sunday!!!) and once the speakers were with them, they were dispatched and arrived next day.

The entire sound system that I purchased is insanely good, but still not as good as Doug Brady HiFi!

Guy H.

I have recently purchased a HiFi package with Doug Brady and I could not be more thrilled with my experience with them.
When I walked into the store, I was made to feel welcome and was introduced to some of the products. I produces a list of specific items I was interested in and John was really helpful in showing me these items. He set the system up so I could experience it, he made some suggestions which made the package even better. Nothing seemed too much trouble for him, he was very knowledgeable about the products and gave great advice. I didn't feel pressured to buy anything, or didn't feel that he was upselling at any point. I left with an amazing package and I'd like to thank John and the team for the fantastic experience.

It’s now two weeks since I bought home my new system and I wanted to say thanks again for all your help, advice and guidance, not to mention cups of tea. I now have a system that meets all my requirements and sounds fantastic. Special thanks to Jon, who I hope is on the road to recovery from his operation and to Roger, who helped me finalise my choice. The Rega Saturn, Hegel H190V and Dali Rubicon 2 is undoubtedly the best system I have ever owned.
