Practical differences

Highlighted cells show a lower reference price, support for more listed speeds, or the presence of a convenience feature. They are not an overall score.

On price alone the Roksan Attessa costs less, coming in $450 (about 26%) below the Pro-Ject X2 B.

Both are belt-drive, so that part of the experience should feel similar on either deck: a motor that's mechanically isolated from the platter by an elastic belt, which is the usual route to a quieter noise floor — the default choice across most of hi-fi.

The Roksan Attessa has a built-in phono stage. Skip the phono stage and you'll need one built into your amp, or a separate box, to play through normal speakers.

Bottom line: $450 separates these reference prices. That difference is factual; this specification comparison does not assign an overall winner.
