Pro-Ject Wallmount it 1 - Black

The Wallmount it 1 — Ninety Millimetres of Frame, and That Is the Point

Pro-Ject's slimmest wall mount for a turntable. The whole assembly stands 90 mm tall, so the bracket disappears under the deck rather than announcing itself, and the shelf sits close to the wall at 415 mm deep.

If you have been putting off a wall mount because you did not want a piece of visible engineering in the middle of a wall, this is the answer to that objection specifically.

What It Is Made Of

Steel, and Spikes to Level It

A rigid steel frame carries the board, and height-adjustable spikes set the surface true. Stiffness has to come from the structure on a wall mount — a shelf that flexes relocates a resonance instead of getting rid of it.

Level matters more here than on a rack. You are working off a plate bolted to masonry, and if that plate went on slightly out, the spikes are what recover it.

The Numbers

Overall 460 x 90 x 415 mm, with a usable surface of 460 x 355 mm and a maximum load of 30 kg — about 66 pounds. Finish is matt black.

Which Wall Do You Have?

Pro-Ject recommends installing the Wallmount it 1 "on solid walls, such as Brick." There is no damping built into this frame, so the wall is doing that half of the work.

Worth checking before you order rather than after. Most American interior partitions are wood studs and drywall; exterior walls are more often masonry. A mount is only ever as solid as what it is bolted to.

Who Is the Wallmount it 1 Best For?

• You want the mount to disappear — 90 mm of frame is the least visible option in the range
• Your floor is suspended timber — footfall and bass reach a floor-standing rack directly
• Your turntable footprint is under 460 x 355 mm — measure across the feet, not the plinth
• You are short of floor space — this uses wall that was doing nothing
• Your wall is studs and plasterboard — this model wants solid masonry; the Wallmount it 5 is the one with damping built in for lighter construction

How Do You Install It?

Fix the wall plate with fasteners suited to your masonry and check it for level before the board goes on. Then set the spikes until the surface is true, put a spirit level on the platter rather than the shelf, and re-check tracking force once the deck is in place.

Pairs Well With

What most owners fit alongside a wall mount.

• Isolation components — for what goes between the shelf and the turntable
• Cartridge alignment tools — for releveling and checking the arm afterward
• Stylus force gauges — re-check tracking force after the turntable moves
• Tonearm lifters — a wall shelf is harder to reach across than a rack

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of wall does it need?

Pro-Ject specifies a solid wall such as brick. There is no integrated damping in this frame, which is what the Wallmount it 5 exists for.

Will my turntable fit?

The surface is 460 x 355 mm. Measure your turntable across its feet — on many designs those sit wider than the plinth suggests.

How much will it hold?

30 kg, roughly 66 pounds. Almost no turntable approaches that, so the wall and the fasteners are the real limit.

Why is it so much shallower than the others?

It is the compact model in the range. At 90 mm tall and 415 mm deep it takes the least wall of any of them, which is the reason to choose it.

Does it need leveling afterwards?

Yes — that is what the adjustable spikes are for. Level the platter itself, not the shelf.
