Hadcock arms

Hey Joe,
The main difference between these two arms is the length. The 228 has an effective length of approximately 228mm, and so forth.

Hi Joe,

Also, the 228 is lighter in effective mass.

Generally, Hadcocks are paired with Grado, Music Maker, or other higher compliance MC cartridges, or alot of MM cartridges.

Don't even think about a DL103R on a Hadcock. It's a classic unstabilized unipivot from the 1970's, and has always had a "cult following" with Grado users. Not a bad arm at all, as long as you match the right kinds of cartridges to it.

The 228 is a traditional unipivot design. The 242 is a "modified" unipivot in that it has two pivots and behaves like a more traditional gimbal type arm if you believe the advertisements.
