best tonearm for Kondo IO-J cart.

Dear [email protected]: The Ikeda tonearms will be a very good match.

I agree with Nsgarch: the IO is a great cartridge and is a very very low output, it needs a Phonolinepreamp with a lot of clean gain and with out step-up transformers.

Regards and enjoy the music.

thanks Nsgarch, the step up im using is the Kondo an-S6cZ which i bought before i even got the cartrige (its pretty damn good). so any chance you know the effective mass of the simon yorke tonearm?
p.s. nice system you have there Nsgarch

Kondo's SFz Step-up is a GREAT match with the IO-j... I've heard this several times and if I had the funds this would be my last combo.

Dear [email protected]
well take a look at the Kuzma-Airline for the Kondo IO-J
but do use the Kondo-KSL-SFZ Step-Up Transformer,
the Kondo Phono M7 and the Kondo Tonarm wire .
I think music replayed via the Kondo analogue chain is
a thing of subtlety presence and enormous emotional power.

basically im using the IO-J on a simon yorke (arm). not sure if they match 100% , how can i increase the mass of the yorke arm. & will it make an audible difference for the better?
