Take that tonearm to the next level with the KAB TD-1000 Fluid Damping System. Shameless plug, I know, but it was the first mod we put on the original 1200 back in 2000 and it lead to a revolution and over 18 years later leads the new revolution of SL-1200's. It's a great time for vinyl.

Does it play 78 RPM record with the same needle? How is the output? Since 78s are long out of production, I wonder why this model still has that facility.

Pity about the detachable headshell which is a weakness regarding rigidity.

@hi-ficorner 5 жыл бұрын

I agree to an extent. But remember the arm can be changed and extra arm boards are available if you want to run 2 or 3 different arms. At this level that's a necessity.

@Fontsman 5 жыл бұрын

In that case I would like to see a matching silver edition of an SME V or maybe a Rega RP2000 with Apheta 2 on this thing.

@kevinatkab5219 5 жыл бұрын

Fixed headshells are only important if you are using a cartridge with a compliance of less than 20 CU @ 10hz. But if your doing that, your just destroying your records anyway.

@Fontsman 5 жыл бұрын

Most if not all, all top quality arms use one piece tubes with fixed headshells. Otherwise you're compromising rigidity. What's the point of having a structural weakness at such a critical point just for convenience.
