I have owned 6 OL arms including my current Enterprise and Conqueror on an OL table. I started with OL many years ago with an original Silver. I have mounted many cartridges on each of the arms without any issue of a broken wire. Yes they are delicate but that does not mean the have a flaw from their construction.
Auris tonearm upgrade for Sota Moonbeam?
I had trouble with broken leads on the OEM Rega 202 tonearm that is fitted on my Sota Moonbeam (2015 vintage) and was wondering if the new Auris W10 tonearm would be a useful upgrade. Thoughts?

I would suspect b/c of weight. |

I didn't realize that there was no standard configuration for the pins on cartridges, that's funny after all these years, to learn this. The headshell wires from Sota have a small tip of bare wire which has been soldered to the clip, and the rest of the wire is insulated, so the tiny bit of fine wire really wants to break off from the solder since it is trapped there with no flexibility. I see how some glue could help the situation. |
