Kuzma 4Point vs Airline - is it worth the upgrade?

congrats Mondie! if you are balancing your TT after mounting you may use small paper leaves (double or more sheets) to put it under one of the TTs edges - just to reach a fully balanced condition. This is helpful for the best working condition of the Airline.

I just read Mikey's review of the Kuzma 4Point in the September Stereophile.

I am always intrigued by clever design and technology. (I really enjoyed reading and understanding the design of the Well Tempered Turntable and Arm. Also the Garrard Zero 100 from earlier years.) The review suggested that the Kuzma 4Point was innovative and clever in its design.

But for the life of me, I could not understand Mikey's description of the bearing. It was completely opaque to me.

I am glad to find that some of you have some experience with this arm. Can you share with me your understanding of how the bearing is implemented? I am intrigued and itching with curiosity!

2 points + 2 points = 4 points

jameswei: glad you said that on mikey's bearing description. I read it about 5 times over 3 days trying to figure out what I was missing ! Now I don't feel (quite) so stupid!

It is interesting the polarization on this arm. Some I respect above have a different opinion....I know lot's of variables...but surely not to this degree so I am assuming matching is critical overly ...

Hiho, thanks for the pics ! Now I understand the bearing! So Mikey kept saying chatterless...seems like their can be chatter is this bearing to...maybe he means less via the 3 points in a cup. 4th on a post...
