Tonearm resonance


Always have had an issue with tonearm noise. I can't afford the the to spend a fortune on a turtable but I just love the sound of vinyl. I have an MMF 7.3 with the stock tonearm and ortofon bronze cartridge which I'm planning to upgrade to a Hana EL most likely. Anyway, I just saw Funk Firm decouplers online the other day and am curious as to whether it is effective or not. If anyone has had experience with it I would love to hear about it. Thanks

put same cartridge in 2 different arms and listen to highly modulated grooves… easy to hear difference… arms are not just about better bearing / geometry but also resonance dissipation, damping and conversion…. 

i am not in the enabler camp… trading slop for damping… but i can see why some people might find it attractive….
