• Very rare arm and the base is the only one ever made out of titanium as per my custom order (I am the original owner) with all others made out of stainless steel - see Jonathan Scull interview, http://www.stereophile.com/content/judy-spotheim-seeing-hearing-light-page-2#A729mqgwcqyH3bKy.97
• Custom lighter weight base allows for much better mounting on sprung turntables.
• Decoupled second version of original SpJ arm circa 1997.
• Brass and some other parts show oxidisation and that is the reason for rating condition as only Good.
• Duo-Pivot frees arm from tracking interference inherent in external anti-skating devices.
• Main pivot made of hardened stainless steel PONS RH 60, grained & polished with its tip pointed upwards inside a well which will take damping fluid if desired.
• Unsurpassed precise micrometer adjustment of overhang, azimuth & VTA.
• Outstanding ability to precisely adjust overhang to compensate for VTA adjustments.
• VTA adjustments can be done while the record is playing.
• Accommodates cartridges from 6-16 grams, & best suited to cartridges of medium, medium-low and low compliance.
• Supplied with all the excellent SpJ setup tools eg stainless steel 2 point protractor, brass rod for setting exact pivot-to-spindle distance, brass rod for setting exact overhang, azimuth alignment jig etc.
• Cardas-Black internal wiring.
• 21 page detailed manual describing setup and adjustments.
