VPI JMW-12.7 tonearm

by VPI Industries, Inc.
in Analog

VPI has a decade of experience designing and building 12" arms and knows what makes them work and what doesn’t. The time has come for VPI to incorporate all its knowledge of tonearm construction and produced a state of the art design.  The 12.7 is the end result of a search for a tonearm that meets the following criteria:

1. A machined tapered arm tube for minimum standing waves in the arm wand and maximum rigidity with low mass.
2. Fully adjustable in all parameters to optimize results from any cartridge.
3. Totally rigid mounting system that literally becomes part of the turntable chassis.
4. Universal cartridge compatibility with stylus resonances in the 9 to 11 HZ range.
5. The best Nordost Valhalla wire (comes as standard).
6. The choice of either XLR or RCA outputs.
7. Adjustable fluid damping for optimal cartridge compatibility.
