Manufacturer's Description:
Tonarm TA 3000
The TA-3000 tonearm is designed for all people wanting to use more cartridges than one but the existing turntable is built only to handle one arm.
If you want to use a Mono cart or a different sounding cartridge in your turntable the TA-3000 is the perfect solution. With his exchangeable armtubes you can switch between cartridges in 2 Minutes without loosing stability.
The Bearings
For the horizontal and vertical bearings only use precision miniature bearings from the German manufacturer SKF. They are very expensive but manufactured to highest quality level. They are carefully selected. The precision bearings are ultra-precisely adjusted during the production process. The bearings are added with minimal pre pressure for zero backlash to achieve a minimum friction and maximum stability.
The Armtube
When it comes to arm tubes - 2 mutually exclusive conditions need to be combined. Maximum stiffness and low resonance achieved by internal damping. Very stiff materials are hard and therefore very susceptible to resonances. On the other side Low-resonance materials are not stiff enough. The solution is a Dual carbon tube. The two pipes are joined by connecting elements. This creates a very rigid tube but still having a high damping and resonance poverty and it is also very light weight.
At the TA-3000 we designed a mechnism which allows exchanging those armtubes within a minute. No loss of fine details. The mechanism is built to give precision and easy handling.
The Cable
when you consider that the signals of a pickup are very small you can well imagine, any interruption and each solder joint makes the signal worse. So we have gone for the cabling of the TA 3000, to a Teflon insulated 6N copper cable which is continuously from the cartridge pins to the5 pin plug plug. Without any interruption - For customers who like to try different cables the TA 3000 is only available with 5 pin connector in the arm shaft.
Azimuth
To set up a pickup perfect it is required to compensate the possible misalignments of the diamonds and herewith do a proper adjustment of the angle. Many tone arms do not have this possibility. At the TA 1000 it can be done very comfortable and the solution is also very rigid and solid so we do not lose sound quality. At the end of Armtube shortly before the Bearing there is a adjustment option. For this you simply open 3 small screws and then the arm tube can be swivel for ± 5 degrees so the angle can be adjusted perfect for each cartridge. If these screws are again tightened the arm tube sits stiff and perfectly adjusted.
All those adjustments are not lost by exchanging the armtube. Armtubes are available in 9, 10 and 12 inch.
