Most fancy tonearms


I've just found this russian page including pics of tonearms with really weird constructive details.

Nice to look at. I'm not shure, however, if I want to know how they would sound...

What are your candidates of special tonearm designs of that kind?

I can't believe that the one that looks like it is on a string and has wheels actually works. This one.

Dear Solong, there is no mention in this article that those
'consructions' are Russian.Well that those are 'non standard' as well that there are 'patent applications' for
some of them (he knows of 15). He intend to post about the
'history of tonearm making' later. But he only mentioned
'47 Lab' tonearm explicite. 'Our own' Lewm owns one of those. The writer (or the author) also stated that the most
of those tonearms are not functional.

Regards,
