Tonearm that surface mount without cutting a hole?

Dynavector DV505, but not the 501 or any version of the 507.  DaVinci Grandezza, maybe.

Eminent Technology ET2

Reed arms surface mount. 

Durand tonearms

Vira 

Viv Lab

The RS Labs RS-A1 tonearm just sits on the plinth. No need to drill holes for screw or bolt!

Thanks for the info

Solypsa , do you own a Viv? If yes, how do you like it?

All these are quite expensive

52Tiger, Fair point about the cost of the named surface mount tonearms.  I guess the least expensive conventional pivoted type would be the Dynavector DV505, which although long discontinued can be found on the "pre-owned" market for ~$900 to $1100.  The Viv and the RS Labs are underhung tonearms (alignment so that the tip of the stylus does not reach the spindle).  This type has no headshell offset angle, either.

Unless I miss my guess, cleeds you are talking about the DV507 Mk2. The DV507 requires a hole for the vertical shaft; it is not a surface mount type. So in that way it is unlike the DV505. But since you have tweaked my interest, I will double-check my facts.

EDIT. I am back here after having consulted the Dynavector website.  The info on the DV507 Mk2 states: "A fixing hole with a diameter of 29 mm is needed to install the DV507MKII on the turntable board. The distance from the centre of the fixing hole on the arm board to the centre of the turntable spindle should be 226 mm."

So, it is not surface mounted, requires a "fixing hole".  If it were surface mounted, I would own one.
