Fonolab AMf-104 Tonearm VTA Adjustment Mechanism

A lot of vintage and current tonearms are not equipped with a VTA adjusting mechanism, by default, which creates certain difficulties when using them with modern quality cartridges.

We have developed an original design of the VTA adjuster that fits perfectly into the various tonearm configurations.

The adjuster design includes extra-fine Mitutoyo micrometer head and micro bubble spirit level. Adjustable VTA panel is installed using three fixing screws on the arm spindle without making any modifications to the arm.

Features:

  • Fine spindle feeding of just 0.1mm/rev for extra-fine adjustment and positioning.
  • External dimensions are compatible with conventional 0.5mm pitch heads.

Technical Data:

  • Graduations: 0.002mm
  • Spindle pitch: 0.1mm
  • Spindle face: Spherical of SKS3 (more than HRC60), lapped surface
  • Scale surface: Hard-chrome plating
  • Fixture thickness for clamp nut: 6mm

The VTA Adjustment Mechanism panel is made out of special aluminum alloy to absorb parasitic vibrations and has a characteristic silver color. The VTA Adjustment set comes with a key and manual.

Available for SAEC, Fidelity research/Ikeda or Jelco/Ortofon tonearms.
