Pro-Ject CD Set E & Stereo Set E1
A pair of ready-made hi-fi systems, perfect for gifting.
Pro-Ject Audio Systems (Pro-Ject) is renowned for its turntables and compact electronics. The Austrian brand also offers ‘Sets’ – complete separates-based hi-fi systems, pre-selected and presented in a single cardboard carton. The latest UK-specific options are the Stereo Set E1 (£699.00), and the CD Set E (£599.00).
Both systems feature the compact yet muscular Stereo Box E amplifier, which supports Bluetooth, includes a moving magnet phono stage and headphone input, and houses impressive power in its 21cm-wide chassis. The Stereo Set E1, designed for vinyl enthusiasts, combines the amplifier with the elegant E1 turntable and a pair of Speaker Box 5E loudspeakers. Inspired by Pro-Ject’s classic Speaker Box 5, the 5E offers sleek design, crisp mids, detailed highs, and punchy bass. Meanwhile, the CD Set E groups the Stereo Box E with the CD Box E CD player and the Speaker Box 3E Carbon loudspeakers, which feature carbon-fibre reinforced woofers for dynamic sound and precise bass, bringing those lovely little silver discs to life.
The Stereo Set E1 is available in black or walnut (the amplifier is always black), while the CD Set E comes in an all-black finish. For those seeking a complete, ready-made audio gift, these Pro-Ject Sets deliver the goods.

Each model in the 2M range is distinguished by its colour, reflecting both its position in the lineup and its unique sonic character.
2M Red (£95.00): Entry-level excellence, delivering rich harmonic sound per pound.
2M Blue (£189.00): Extended frequency bandwidth for a more precise and direct sound.
2M Bronze (£365.00): A damped, romantic presentation, ideal for classical music.
