Acoustic Signature TA-7000 NEO Tonearm
Welcome to the absolute world class of tonearms! With its carbon armtube, its special inner construction, the ball bearings used in space technology, the high-purity silver wiring and last but not least the famous manufacturing quality of Acoustic Signature, the TA‑7000 NEO is one of those tonearms which are rather limited by the choice of the cartridge or turntable. In short: The 9-inch and 12-inch versions of the TA‑7000 NEO are made to be paired with the very best cartridges and turntables.
Special features:
- Tonearm with 3D-damped carbon armtube
- Super-low resonance, extremly rigid and conical shaped tube design
- Available as 9″ and 12″ version
- Optimal tracking results due to pre-tensioned high-precision ball bearings
- Better rigidity and smooth operation due to stainless steel tonearm axis design
- Internal high-purity silver wiring (4N)
- Supplied with external Atlas Equator 5-pin phono cable (1.5 m, RCA or XLR)
- Counterweight made of brass
- Optional headshell made of massive titanium
- Adjustable VTA & azimuth
- Anti-skating knob
- SME-type mounting versions
- 5-year warranty (with registration)
“I hear the ’table’s well-hidden, ingeniously designed, skillfully executed guts in every play. Wherever you wish to go sonically, the Montana NEO/TA-7000 NEO combo can reliably take you there.”
