QUICK PROFILE

A turn­table is only as good as its wea­kest link! As a matter of principle, we do not want to allow our­sel­ves to call our ‘smal­lest’ an entry-level tone­arm. The TA‑500 NEO is simply much too good for that!

Quality 'Made in Germany'

Lovingly handcrafted in Germany, the TA-500 NEO scores with cardanic precision ball bearings that provide excellent control and a stainless steel tonearm axis for more rigidity and smoothness.
