Audioquest PT Arm Damping Fluid

Mark, this may be too obvious but have you contacted AQ?

If they could not help, you might try Sumiko. Their Premier arms (long discontinued) came from the same OEM. I have a FT-3 and while the weight/type of damping fluid is not specified, instructions say to experiment with the amount of fluid to achieve proper damping.

If this too fails, I would contact Jelco in Japan, the OEM.

Good luck.

Hello Pryso,
Thank you for your advice. Yours is course the most logical, and I did earlier shoot an email off to Audioquest, not asking for Fluids-freebies, but if they can provide the Weight Specification for the Fluid?

If I have no luck with them, I will try as you say, to either contact Sumiko, or even Jelco in Japan.

If I can find out this information, I will share it here, so other owners of these Arms can find this information in the future in our Agon archives.
Thank again Wayne/Pryso for your help! Mark

Mark, another good answer from Pryso. Jelso has just released a new tone arm they are selling as a jelso with some new features, with damping. So they maybe able to tell you viscosity. I have emailed them and gotten a response about the new 750D arm.
