Pivoting tangential-tracker tonearm by Thales shows more promise that conventional linear tracking.
Linear tracking turntables, whatever happened?
Curious as to the demise and downfall of the seemingly short lived linear tracking TT.
Just from a geometry point of view I would have thought a linear arm should be superior to one with a fixed pivot that sweeps through an arc.
Obviously there is much more to it than that, sort of the reason for this thread.
I am genuinely interested in trying one out for myself as well.

Just fired up my old sl10 after seeing this thread brought back . With the Adzen p mount cart in it now, I was pleasantly impressed again . It resides in my PC room system right now but might have to try it again in my main rig now it has a totally different phono and SUT from the last less than satisfying trial. |
This intrigues me and at that price I am SORELY tempted to give it a try on my Garrard 401.... http://www.airprodigy.co.uk/ |
This is wierd, I just stumbled on this thread after just picking up a Pioneer PL1000 from a work friend who bought it when he was stationed in Germany in 1982. He shipped it home and never played it much if at all. Well, after giving him $50.00 for it, I got it home, opened the box and Wow this TT is brand new. The dust cover is absolutely pristeen. Pluged it in and every thing works perfectly. Now to research a little more n this TT. |
