I have an SME V and my HTA key is definitely a Torx-style wrench. It's not an Allen key.

Sorry, but the SME HTA key is still a T6 torx. refer to page 14 (Step 421): https://sme.co.uk/audio/wp-content/uploads/sites/1/2016/12/SME-series-iv-instructions.pdf |
A Torx head is not the same as a hex head. A hex screw has a six sided depression, while the Torx depression has a 6-sided star shape. From the instruction manual danmar posted, you are looking for a common allen hex driver. Get a metric set with enough small sizes and you should find one that fits perfectly. If you want to get fancy, you can get a ball-ended hex wrench set. It is this ball-ended type that SME apparently supplies with their tonearms. My Basis Vector arm came with ball-ended hex wrenches too. They essentially work the same as regular hex wrenches, but they are easier to insert because you can come in at an angle and they will still fit. |

No, my apologies. Look @ page 7- https://sme.co.uk/audio/wp-content/uploads/sites/1/2016/12/SME-series-300-instructions.pdf |
Appears to be a Torx head. If so, order a set from Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Syntus-Precision-Screwdriver-Electronics-Cellphone/dp/B071PB4RPV/ref=sxin_23_... |
