Pro-Ject Wallmount It 2 - Black

The Wallmount it 2 — The Same Shelf, on a Much Bigger Bracket

A wall mount with a 460 x 355 mm surface — identical to the compact model in Pro-Ject's range — carried on a frame that is far larger. This one stands 260 mm tall and reaches 455 mm out from the wall.

So you are not paying for more shelf. You are paying for more structure underneath it, and whether that is worth it depends entirely on what you intend to stand on top.

Why a Larger Frame Under the Same Board

Leverage

A wall mount is a cantilever, and everything standing on the shelf is trying to rotate the whole assembly away from the wall. The taller and deeper the bracket, the more of that load resolves into the wall plate rather than into flex at the front edge of the board.

That is the whole argument for a bigger frame under the same board. Shelf area is set by what you intend to stand on it; the bracket is set by how firmly you want that held.

Steel and Spikes

Rigid steel frame construction throughout, with height-adjustable spikes to bring the board true. Overall dimensions are 460 x 260 x 455 mm, the finish is matt black, and maximum load is 30 kg — about 66 pounds, which covers essentially any turntable.

Which Wall Do You Have?

Pro-Ject recommends the Wallmount it 2 "on solid walls, such as Brick." No damping is built into the frame, which means the wall itself has to provide it — the mount is stiff rather than absorbent, by design.

A deeper bracket also asks more of the fixing, because the load sits further from the wall. That makes the wall type question sharper here, not softer — establish what you are drilling into before you order.

Who Is the Wallmount it 2 Best For?

• You want more bracket than the compact model gives — 260 mm tall and 455 mm deep, on the same shelf
• Your floor is suspended timber — the path a wall mount removes is the one a wooden floor provides
• Your turntable fits 460 x 355 mm — measure across the feet before ordering
• You have the wall depth to give — this projects 455 mm, which is not a shelf you walk past closely
• Your wall is studs and plasterboard — solid masonry is what this was designed for; the Wallmount it 5 is damped for lighter walls

How Do You Install It?

Fasten the wall plate to masonry with appropriate fixings and level it before the board goes on — with this much projection, an error at the plate is magnified at the front edge. Then set the spikes, level the platter itself, and re-check tracking force.

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
• Record mats — worth revisiting once the deck is genuinely steady

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of wall does it need?

A solid wall such as brick, per Pro-Ject. The frame carries no damping of its own, which is what separates it from the Wallmount it 5.

How is this different from the compact model?

The shelf is the same 460 x 355 mm. The frame is not: 260 mm tall against 90 mm, and 455 mm deep against 415 mm. You are buying bracket, not surface.

Will my turntable fit?

The usable surface is 460 x 355 mm — measure your deck across the feet, which often sit wider than the plinth.

How much will it hold?

30 kg, about 66 pounds. In practice the fixings and the wall decide the limit long before the shelf does.

How far does it stick out?

455 mm overall. Worth measuring against the room before ordering if the wall is somewhere people walk.
