New $35K pivoting tonearm


Vertere Audio is Touraj Moghaddam cofounder of Roksan.

It has some interesting features including aligning the pivots to the offset angle rather than the arm tube, and bearings that don't rotate, made out of polymer-metal laminate film. Has 240mm effective length.

This came up on Audio Circle and somebody said it sounds good. I certainly hope so. Anybody else?

Hold on to your wallets folks... This is for All you suckers that paid 19.5 K for the Durand " TELOS" WOOD tonearm. This audio bargain of the century has a NEW updated arm wand . It is now made from a mystery blend of composites (plastics) NOT wood! Cost for this upgrade is only 6K! The good news ... the old wooded arm will not go to waste. It will make a killer finely tuned back scratchier.
The optional 4.5K cost sapphire head shell spacer is NOT used on the new updated composite arm wand . Oops... on running out and buying one! Useless on the new arm wand. Throw it in the
goldfish tank next to the fancy glass marbles. Ouch!!!
One of the most expensive back scratchier in the world, Or... A pair of them could be used for tossing salads.
They used to make boats out of Wood , not any more. Seen a few wood tonearms many years back. Where are they now? They don't even use Wood for park benches anymore.
