Description
Welcome to the absolute world class of tonearms! With its carbon armtube, its special inner construction, the ball bearings used in space technology, the high-purity silver wiring and last but not least the famous manufacturing quality of Acoustic Signature, the TA‑7000 NEO is one of those tonearms which are rather limited by the choice of the cartridge or turntable. In short: The 9-inch and 12-inch versions of the TA‑7000 NEO are made to be paired with the very best cartridges and turntables.
