Pro-Ject Tonearm 9CC EVO 5P
Estimated arrival date:
DESCRIPTION
The Pro-Ject 9cc Evolution 9″ precision tonearm with carbon fiber arm tube provides precise tracking of the record groove and efficiently redirects parasitic vibrations away from the cartridge into the mounting board.
The Pro-Ject tonearm has a headshell and arm tube are fashioned from a single piece of carbon fiber in a conical shape in order to avoid standing wave reflections. Furthermore, the inverted bearing, arm’s bearing, and counterweight are all designed to avoid and reject resonance. Complete adjustment of arm height, VTA, and headshell azimuth is easy and reliable. The silicone-damped arm lift is also adjustable to suit the tonearm’s height. Internal wiring is flexible high-purity copper from headshell to a 5-pin connector.
Supplied Counterweight is Sorbotahane-damped: Suitable for cartridges weighing between 5-7.5g, 7-10g, 9-11g, and 10-14g. Effective length: 9″. Mounting distance from platter to tonearm base: 212mm. Effective Mass: 8g. Overhang: 18mm. Weight 265g (without counterweight). Note: compatible with the Linn standard unless otherwise stated.
