  Why is the price of new tonearms so high
Im wondering why the price of new tonearms are so high, around $12k to $15k when older very good arms can be bought at half or less?

>>> I have no questions - at least not in Audio. <<<

Am I reading this correctly? I hope it's not as it sounds. I have tons of questions about audio. The more I learn the more questions I have. That's what makes this so much fun. If you have all of the answers then that's actually quite sad.
