Pro-Ject Juke Box E1 Turntable - Ortofon OM5e

Pro-Ject's All-in-One Vinyl System

The Juke Box E1 packs a belt-drive turntable, phono preamp, Bluetooth receiver, line preamp, and a 50-watt-per-channel stereo amplifier into one chassis. Add a pair of passive speakers and speaker wire, and you have a complete vinyl and streaming system without a separate receiver or integrated amp.

This package ships with an Ortofon OM5e moving-magnet cartridge pre-mounted, with tracking force and anti-skating already set at the factory. Electronic speed control switches between 33 and 45rpm at the touch of a button, with no belt to move.

Available in high-gloss Black, White, or Red, the Juke Box E1 is handmade in Europe and includes a hinged dust cover, a remote control, and everything needed to start playing records once speakers are connected.

Built-In Power Keeps the System Simple

A Complete Amplifier in One Chassis

The built-in stereo amplifier delivers 50 watts per channel into 4 ohms, with speaker outputs that connect directly to a pair of passive speakers. A top-mounted display shows the selected input and volume, and the front control knob handles power, input, and volume.

The included remote adds power, volume, input, bass, treble, and loudness control from your listening seat, so day-to-day use never requires walking back to the turntable itself just to switch inputs or nudge the volume.

Bluetooth In, Not Out

A built-in Bluetooth receiver lets you stream music from a compatible phone, tablet, or computer through the connected speakers, alongside a separate analog line input for a CD player or tuner.

That Bluetooth connection is an input only, not an output — it doesn't send record sound to Bluetooth headphones or wireless speakers. A fixed line output carries the turntable's own signal to another component when you need it.

Who Is the Juke Box E1 Best For?

• You want a complete vinyl system in one box — it replaces a separate turntable, phono preamp, preamp, and power amplifier
• You already have, or plan to buy, passive speakers — speakers and speaker wire aren't included and must be purchased separately
• You want an easy first system — the cartridge, tracking force, and anti-skating all arrive set at the factory
• You want to stream from your phone through the same speakers — Bluetooth and a line input both work alongside the turntable
• You want to send record sound to Bluetooth headphones or speakers — this system's Bluetooth only receives streamed audio, it doesn't transmit

How Does It Connect to Your System?

Connect a pair of passive speakers to the rear speaker outputs with standard speaker wire; no separate amplifier or phono preamp is needed for normal use, since both are already built in.

A fixed line output also carries the turntable's own signal out, useful if you ever want to record it or route it to a separate component down the line.

Pairs Well With

Where the Juke Box E1 goes from here:

• Passive speakers — the one thing this system still needs to make sound
• Audio racks — a rigid, level shelf lets the isolated feet do their job
• Record cleaning accessories — clean records sound better and protect the factory-mounted stylus
• Phono cartridges — the aluminum tonearm accepts other cartridges if you want to upgrade later

Frequently Asked Questions

It doesn't. You'll need a pair of passive speakers and speaker wire; a separate amplifier isn't required since one is built in.

Does it have a built-in phono preamp?

Yes. The phono preamp and stereo power amplifier are both built in, so the system can drive connected passive speakers directly.

Can it play music from my phone?

Yes. Pair a compatible phone, tablet, or computer with the built-in Bluetooth receiver.

Can it send record sound to Bluetooth headphones?

It can't. This system's Bluetooth connection only receives streamed music; it doesn't transmit sound to Bluetooth headphones or wireless speakers.
