Why is the price of new tonearms so high

Maybe Raul does.<<

Thank you making that quite clear. Must have missed that point last time round. Now what's THAT mean....?
A shortcut? A new geometry? A new ...?

I can go back to rest my case, yet another 'non-compliant' item.
Oh, well.

Syntax, you can make that man a great favour by letting us all know.

Dertonarm, thank you very much for the invitation, always wanted to see Munich. I spent one summer working in Koblenz actually.

Dear Perrew,
I am regulary in Koblenz too - family affairs.... but there's no sound there.
Anyway - you are one of the few who will be welcome.
Still vividly remembering my visit to Stockholm in early September 1986.
10 of the 20 most beautiful women I ever saw - I saw that one day in Stockholm.
The best of the other 10 mentioned I married many years later.
Cheers,
D.

Dear Axel, there is no such thing ever as a "new geometry". I believe at least this should be clear to each and everybody.
Lurne's concept idea brings a very special aspect of sttice balance into focus.
His claim that this is the one very important key-stone is however off topic.
In fact - mother nature invented a similar concept/principle of self stabilizing balance as far back as the Carboniferous Period.
Well ahead of all tonearm designers.
It was somehow improved in later years, but the concept was put - dare I using that term... - to an absolute as far back as the late Creataceous.
I am really dissapointed if anyone do ask now what I am refering to.
Cheers,
D.
