TP 16 MkII tone arm
For optimum
in tracking ability it is not sufficient that a tonearm has a low bearing
friction. It is much more important that it has a low effective mass, because
high mass prevents the stylus from following the imperfections (warp or ripple)
of the record as it should do.
To overcome
high effective mass one can increase the stylus force, but this results in
excessive record wear.
Precision
bell bearings are used in this professiional arm, mking it insensitive to shock
and rough handling , ideally used for broadcasting and discotheques. In
addition, the TP 16 MkII is a straight arm and not S-shaped. The necessary
offset angle is independent of the arm shape. A special surface treatment of
the tone armtube absorbs all undesirable resonances of the tone arm.
It will
optimise ideally with almost every cartridge.
