td-01 chinese tonearm?


Has anyone got any info on this item. There is one for sale on ebay right now. Uses a wood tonearm shaft with a ceramic unipivot bearing with a string that seems to center or otherwise hold it in place. Interesting looking design, but I'd like to know more.

I think it was the Helius Orion first & the Cyalene later using the 3+1 balls.
I recall some similarities with the old monophonic "Gray" arm that uses grease (instead of oil in the TD-01)
Another thing that differentiates the WT is the great mass at the pivot point.
