In Stock products are those that are currently held in stock at our Oxfordshire warehouse. This stock status is updated regularly but is subject to change at very short notice.
Products that are Awaiting Stock are items that we would normally carry on stock at our Oxfordshire warehouse, but are currently unavailable. Chances are there is already more on the way, but if you would like a more accurate availability status please feel free to Contact Us.
Urgent order items are products that we do not normally carry on stock, but they are typically held on stock by our European suppliers. Depending on availability, we will seek to order these products quickly, when we have an enquiry. They can therefore be subject to quicker availability times than "Special Order" products.
Special Order items are those that are most often built to order. For these items, we tend to experience longer lead times as we negotiate them into the production line with our suppliers.
Exclusive products are sold only through one, or sometimes a very small number of dealers. As part of their commitment to the product’s exclusivity, they carry most of the available stock.

Trusted Reviews Check out the Pro-Ject Audio Automat A1
""On paper, the benefits of an ‘automatic’ turntable don’t seem all that significant; but in practice, it’s very convenient, especially when it comes to taking the needle off the record in good time..""
The Audiophile man reviews the Pro-Ject Automat A1
"For the price and for a fully automatic operation, the Pro-Ject Automat A1 is a great little design. It blends price with ease of use and sound quality to offer a perfectly blended package."
Henley Says...
Automatic turntables are something that customers have asked for for years, but Pro-Ject wanted to do justice to the concept, and so the A1 was designed and created. Using tried and tested mechanisms the A1 is simple, and a joy, to use. No more listening to the run-out groove for 5 minutes persuading yourself to kick the cat off of your lap to stop the record - the A1 lets you settle in, enjoy an album and then stay resting. If you fall asleep as a result? I see that as a positive!
Many of our turntables may have multiple compatible counterweights available. The counterweight you actually need is the one that allows you to balance your existing cartridge while ideally sitting near the tonearm bearing when fully installed.
If your counterweight sits right at the back of the tonearm, it runs the risk of introducing some micro-vibrations, so aiming for a counterweight where your cartridge weight is in the lower range of the supported weights is ideal.
To help you make the right decision, we've produced a comprehensive list of all our tonearms and counterweights.
