  • The PrimaryControl Reference Tonearm is a two point bearing design based on a uni-pivot bearing, with a second bearing point for stabilisation during playback and handling.
  • The Reference Tonearm allows VTA adjustment on the fly. The second bearing point functions at the same time as azimuth adjustment device.
  • Anti-skating is realised by a non contact magnetic device which has a non linear characteristic over the radius of the record.
  • Every tonearm is individually balanced to reach lowest mass moment of inertia, thus lowest variation of VTF during playback.
