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.
