Denon DA-401
Favorite used tonearms under 1000 dollars
Some of you may know that I have put together a Victor TT with the CL-P2 plinth with custom armboards. My new armboards allow me to quickly change arms using custom inserts.
So far, I have a Audio Technica ATP-12T in the back position and a Victor UA-7045 on the right hand side.
My cartridge of choice is the Denon DL-103 in various carnations. So low to medium compliance.
On the way is a Victor UA-7082 tonearm and on the shelf is a Fidelity Research FR-54. I will make mounts up for both.
So what are your favorite tonearms that can be had for under 1000 USD? I know Chakster is a big fan of vintage Japanese tonearms and for good reason.
I really love the Victor arms, they are full featured with anti skating and VTA adjustments on the fly plus the build quality is over the top. Probably the best bargain out there.
