No Pro-Ject Reviews in Stereophile


I’ve never seen a Pro-Ject turntable or phono-pre reviewed in Stereophile. Any ideas about why? Have you noticed total silence re. other popular brands?

Try and Google Project Turntable Stereophile and you'll find a number of different reviews by them.  However, I do acknowledge your point that they may exclude certain brands. This does not bother me, as they have their own business model and rely on advertising. They have a big presence, so need brands that fuel their engine.

For example, if you Google TW Acustic Stereophile, you won't find any dedicated reviews, but there are interest and show articles from them praising the sound of this equipment and other gear that also doesn't make it to review or recommendation. They may really love the sound, but perhaps these brands simply can't afford their advertising. This subject has been covered many times over the years.

Thanks for the comments. I did in fact find a review of the Debut in 2010. (The other google hits were online discussions.) Wasn’t Roy something of Music Hall the guy SAM Tellig sparred with regularly?
Roy Hall. Music Hall. Pro-Ject OEM products.
The pro-ject products were already there, kinda...as Music Hall products.
Now that Pro-Ject owns Music hall, we expect them to quite possibly end all OEM work and just sell direct under these given names. (Music Hall, Musical Fidelity, and Pro-Ject)

Roy Hall is a genuine character, who sparred with anyone willing to engage. All in good fun normally. He used to bring a suitcase full of single malt to shows, if he knew you, a wee shot would be offered. Neither here nor there, just felt like sharing a memory.
