Compatible with multiple Debut and Essential models, it ensures your cartridge reads records accurately for full sound fidelity. Installation requires basic tools and care to avoid warranty issues. ## Description This is for increasing the height of the tonearm on a Pro-Ject Debut or Pro-Ject Essential turntable. It is compatible with Debut I-III, Debut Carbon, Debut Carbon EVO, Essential I-III (only in the standard configurations). It is 1.5mm thick. The Pro-Ject Debut and Pro-Ject Essential Turntables do not have the option to adjust the height of the tonearm and so if you upgrade a stock metal platter to an acrylic platter, or upgrade a stock mat to a thicker mat, the vertical track angle (VTA) will be off, which will make it harder for the cartridge to read the record correctly and get the full range of sound. You can correct this misalignment by installing this VTA shim to increase the height of the tonearm. A Philips # 1 screwdriver & 5.5 mm nut driver wrench are required for installation. Installing the tonearm is a bit of a process, so you should only try this if you can have a professional do it or you feel comfortable messing with your turntable. It is possible to void your warranty if you mess up your turntable in the process of installing this VTA shim. A link to the instructions is included on the Supreme Tech website. You can find the URL on the label on the bag the VTA shim comes in. Review: VTA - Not hard to install,,,leveled the arm up when I added the new acrylic platter that was a little taller than the original Review: Works as advertised - Bought this to accompany the acrylic platter and it works exactly as it should. The installation on my OG Debut 3 wasn't that difficult and after rebalancing my tonearm the cartridge looks perfectly aligned with the new platter. ## Features - This is for increasing the height of the tonearm on a Pro-Ject Debut or Pro-Ject Essential turntable. - Compatible with Debut I-III, Debut Carbon, Debut Carbon EVO, Essential I-III (only in the standard configurations).

The installation on my OG Debut 3 wasn't that difficult and after rebalancing my tonearm the cartridge looks perfectly aligned with the new platter. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The exact same product for 3 times cheaper. *by J***S on 26 July 2022* After going through two Ortofon 2M Blues on my Project DC Espirit that rode WAY too low it was touching the vinyl, I gave up and thought I would never find a way to upgrade from the 2M red. Turns out Pro Ject made a VTA shim last year for $25, but kinda hard to find dealers that sell it, so I just kept forgetting about it. Finally decided to give it a try, searched here on Amazon and found this one, which is the exact same as the Pro Ject product and follows the same instructions, but happens to be cheaper. The installation is not easy but not hard, I do not do any kind of DIY projects and still could install this myself. Installed the 2M blue and it's riding perfectly. Definitely recommend this product. ## Frequently Bought Together - VTA Shim for Pro-Ject Debut and Pro-Ject Essential Turntables - Pro-Ject: Acryl-It Platter Upgrade --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/436552654-vta-shim-for-pro-ject-debut-and-pro-ject-essential](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/436552654-vta-shim-for-pro-ject-debut-and-pro-ject-essential) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-07-24*
