thus ensuring the cartridge platform and the cartridge itself move with very low friction and minimal
vibration across the record. It is normal to feel slack in the bearings in certain directions.
The whole construction is mounted on a rigid VTA tower which allows very precise VTA adjustment
while playing, without any loss of rigidity, yet with up to 0.01 mm of precision and zero play.
The main tube is constructed and machined from solid aluminium, similar to our tangential Air line
arm. The main counterweight balances the tonearm and there is a second small counterweight with
which the tracking force can be finely adjusted. Azimuth can be adjusted in small repeatable
increments with zero play, by means of an Allen key.
A feature of the tonearm is a unique detachable headshell. The electrical connection is via standard
pins but the headshell can be simply removed by unscrewing with an Allen key. The headshell is
fixed with a precise hexagonal locking system giving the same rigidity as with a fixed headshell.
Two separate troughs damp vertical and horizontal resonances and can be finely adjusted
independently. The troughs can be removed from the tonearm.
Internal wiring is of superior special alloy silver wires. One set of 4 wires runs unbroken from the
cartridge pins to the termination box and further along into a 1.4 m long tonearm cable with silver
Eichmann bullet connectors. The second set of 4 wires runs from the same cartridge pins to the
termination box to female Cardas RCA connectors thus allowing use of any RCA plugged tonearm
cable from termination box, to phono preamp input. This gives so called biwiring on this tonearm and
a lot of flexibility with choice of no compromise cables.
Note:
If both sets of cables are connected, bear in mind that an MC cartridge will see it as »double loading«.
If you want to set up 2000 Ohms, with both sets of wire connected to the same phono unit, then 4000
Ohms loading should be set.
