Commentary
A tone arm designed to connect the cartridge directly to the turntable mass.
It uses a unique fixed bearing to eliminate resonance in the head shell, minimize effective mass, and minimize pivot resistance.
It has a silicon dump structure with an external oil bath.
By replacing the attached 3 types of paddles, damping characteristics corresponding to the compliance of the cartridge can be obtained.
