A Complete tonearm kit
including templates and tools for...   £179.90 inc. vat

The sleek black profile of this sensibly priced fully adjustable Hi-Fi tonearm is more than just beautiful, it reflects the exceptional performance of the ALT-1. It's low mass enables modern high compliance cartridges to follow highly modulated recordings faithfully and offers ideal resonant characteristics, staying well clear of the critical 5Hz area excited by warped or rippled records known to result in mistracking and loss of definition.

With single 1" hole or SME type mounting This high quality arm is made in Japan by the same factory as some of the Linn models, and will fit most enthusiast turntables such as... Rega Planar 2, Planar 3, Linn LP12, Thorens TD160, Ariston RD80, Systemdeck 2X900, Michell, Garrard 401 etc.

It is as easy to install as it is to use, an important aspect of arm performance, since some tonearms are so complex to set up that you may never realise their full potential.   ALT-1 has a moulded carbon fibre headshell with gold plated computer pin terminals, locked in place by a magnesium screw to retain the low mass, high rigidity characteristics demanded of high quality tonearms yet still retaining the convenience of a detachable headshell, plus it has clear tracking weight and bias calibration for accurate settings. .
