Tone Arm Lifter


Hello.

 

I have a new table and wonder if some here have installed a tonearm lifter, and if so, which did they find fit well and worked best?  My table is a Technics SL-1300G.

 

Thanks for any input.

I also use Little Fwend on my 1200G. It works great and is easy to install and adjust. I first had the Tru Lift, it was very finicky. 

I use Little Fwend on my Thorens TD 160. It was a bit finicky to setup, as it was a tight fit between platter and tonearm, but once tweaked into position it works well.

I've used an Audio-Technica Safety Raiser for a couple of years on my Origin Live Resolution. A little fiddly to set up, but once done, works great.

Quality built piece & and yes once you have it set up correctly works great !

Another vote for the Audio Technica AT6006R!  Quality manufacturing, reasonably priced and lifts your tonearm gently.  There are cheaper or less expensive alternatives that lift a tonearm but do so very abruptly.  I wouldn't trust those.  My fear is the tonearm would bounce around and the cartridge & stylus could come crashing down on the record.  Little Fwend is nice, well reviewed but wickedly overpriced.  The AT is half the price, as well manufactured and works just as well.  It's a little finicky to set up correctly but works like a charm.
