Clearaudio TT5 tangential tonearm


Hi:

I am entering analog world and seek your opinion about Clearaudio’s new TT5 tangential tonearm. On paper tangential tonearms seem extremely convincing and pivoted tonearms seem a compromise from the start.

Can you please share your experience with Clearaudio TT5/3/2 tangential tonearm? Are the metal wheels on glass tube mechanism inherently noisy? Any maintenance issues?

Regards

clearance sale on the ET ?

to the OP, they are rarely set and forget. The CA arm origin is at root dna Souther it not same Arm.  i sold and setup a few Southers back in the day. Keeping the rods clean pays big dividends.

The ET-2 series is my fave to this day but i have not heard the Kuzma.

Any dog that can be trained to power up the air pump gets my nod !
