On a practical note; look up what tonearm assembly weight ( actual total weight not effective mass ) the SME 15 suspension can handle. Since they sell a version sans tonearm this should be documented.
Kuzma lists the 4pt9 total mass as 920g
Anyone with experience mating a Kuzma 4Point 9 tonearm to a SME 15 turntable ?
Currently listening by way of an original Avid Volvere/SME IV/Air Tight PC1s.
Have on hand a Zyx Universe III &/or a Benz Micro LPS for the Kuzma/SME combo.
Not sure if this is an upgrade or just a lateral move. Either way objective is to have 2 TTs in system.
Your insights are welcome & thanks in advance.

I have a client that wanted the direct drive STST Motus IIDQ { smart man :)} which I represent however he already had a 4pt14 which is a whopping ~ 2kg. We went with the unsuspended Motus DQ as a result. Sounds fantastic. Anyway that’s why it crossed my mind for you to check compatibility... If you are set on another belt drive I think @dover gave an excellent suggestion. Do want to have ’a different flavor’ with your second table or just ’ better ’ or? |
