Key Features:

• The headshell and armtube are fashioned from a single piece of carbon-fibre.
• Conical armtube avoids standing wave reflections.
• Inverted bearing design with four ABEC7 spec ballraces.
• Arm bearing housing of solid ring type. The massive outside ring is open to avoid resonances.
• Sorbothane® -damped counterweight effectively counteracts unwanted resonances.
• Counterweight shaft lowered to record level reduces cantilever forces and dynamic wow when playing warped records.
• Solid armbase permits accurate height adjustment of armtube and VTA (vertical tracing angle).
• Single-screw fixing of armtube allows rotation for easy adjustment of needle azimuth despite fixed headshell.
• Straight armtube reduces toe-in error.
• Silicone-damped armlift can be adjusted to suit arm height.
• The internal wiring consists of flexible high-purity copper from the headshell right through to the gold-plated phono sockets
