Scout II turntable

The Scout II carries the basic idea of the Scout to a higher and more user friendly level.  A new 12" diameter cast aluminum platter similar to the "CLASSIC TURNTABLE" platter but 1 3/8" in thickness will be part of the Scout II design improvements.

The arm on the Scout is excellent but is limited to higher compliance moving coils (above 12) or moving iron and moving magnet cartridges of higher compliance. The Scout II has a new higher mass tapered tonearm based on the very successful 12.7 arm, reduced in length but still having the full machined tapered arm tube and internal Delrin damping.  This new JMW-9HM is a better match for all moving coil cartridges.
