MA-701
Low-Mass
Straight Tonearm with Dual Radial Bearings
A special
alluminum alloy is used to give the arm its formidable strength and
exceptionally low mass. Both qualities are needed to take full advantage of
todays, supercompliant cartridges. The straight-line geometry assures the most
accurate tracing angles as well as contributing to the arm's low mass. A pair
of precision radial bearings give the arm a lateral sensitivity of only 10
milligrams. Even the normally-over-looked signal connectors are of the constant
wipe type, insuring contact maintenance at all times.
Headshell
Thanks to
the use of carbon fibres, the headshell is as light and rigid as the arm
itself. It joins the arm with a semi-integrated plug-in system that utiliizes
thick gold-plated wiping-type contacts. Oxygen-free copper leads are used to
exclude electromagnetic influences (eddy-current losses) resulting in
exceptional transmission characteristics. (Improved S/N ratio).
Skating
Force Cancellation
Anti-skating
is provided by a precision-calibrted adjustment to exactly match vertical
tracking force.
Oil Damped
Cueing
Feather-light
contact between stylus and record groove is provided by the oil-damped cueing
system. It is silent, smooth and, at the end of a record, completely automatic.
