Note: This tonearm comes without a headshell. The Schick Graphite headshell is available as an option.
The optional Schick Graphite headshell is made from oil-soaked graphite and weighs 15 g. If using some other headshell, a wood one is recommended. A tonearm lift and antiskating is included.
Technically, the shorter arm-tube has advantages, including less resonance and lower moving mass. The geometric distortion rises somewhat, but the effective length of the Schick-designed 9.6 inch arm (longer than most other 9 inch arms) keeps it well below sonic interference or degradation of signal.
The shorter arm has similar sonic characteristics as the longer arm. Additionally, with the Shick graphite headshell, a very large range of suitable cartridges can be used, up to a compliance of 22 µm/mN.
Azimuth, VTA (tonearm height), and tracking force can be adjusted as with all Schick tonearms. This 9.6" tonearm length allows direct mounting on most record players.
For those with EMT record players, the mounting distance allows plug-in-replacement without any modification.
