Origin Live Zephyr MK4 9.5" Tonearm

This listing does not include a cartridge

“It offers a sonic feast for the ear…….But it was in musical communication that the Zephyr’s quality truly revealed itself. What the instruments played and how they played it was immediately open to perception. All the details of a musician’s artistry were clearly revealed: “touch,” phrasing, punctuation, dynamics, tension/release, flow, tempo, and rhythm.

After my time spent with the Origin Live Zephyr, it slots in as one of my favorite tonearms: both for how good it sounds and how well it communicates the artistic meaning of music. Very very highly recommended.”  –Stereo Times

All this adds up to a clear improvement in bass weight, dynamics, resolution and image stability – worthy of belonging to our premium range.
