I saw this today, looks like a new approach to a tonearm, although I would love to see a few more pics of exactly how it works.

Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how it survives. It seems to be a knife edge for the vertical movement, sitting on a more conventional bearing for rotation as far as I can tell, but I might be wrong there.

Looks really interesting! Would be great to see it in the flesh...

I love the stealth look - makes my recently purchased Nima look like a clunker! Lots of good information here, including manual, video and review: https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/ ... m.1088949/

Very clever design details, makes the unipivot on the VPI Scout look antique.

Sttttooooppp!

I don't need the encouragement! I'd be seriously looking at it if I hadn't just bought one of these (no buyer's remorse either).

Is it based on the Well Tempered Tonearm?
