Parts for Dynavector 501 Tonearm

You should be able to get the parts from Dynavector.

Some of the parts for the 507, which is still current, are the same as the 501 and can be interchanged. I would be surprised if the arm lift mechanism is not interchangeable.

I  don't know who came up with the idea of using the parts from the 507, but I thank them for thinking of it for me.

You are welcome.

While you are at it the 507 Base with the VTA adjuster also fits the 501 if your 501 doesn't already have it. It is quite course in operation but useful. I use it with a bronze stabiliser I custom built that goes under the armboard - friction fit plus 3 tapped screw holes to mate with the VTA Base.

Thats great news.

Fyi - I fully rebuilt my 501 - including rewire and changed the angle of the sub arm to facilitate Baerwald rather than Stevenson, and still keep ing the cartridge dead straight in the headshell ( this is critical because the cartridge needs to be at right angle to the vertical bearings to avoid torsional force on the cantilever ).

I had to recalculate all the overhang, pivot to spindle and offset angle.

Never again - it was a drama I could have done without.
