The original headshell on the Ortofon TA-110 is 13.5 gr, the arm itself is 3.5 gr. I will need to accomodate the arm for Colibri LWG which would benefit from arm between 8-14 gr. So my question is - did somebody try a lighter headshell on TA-110 (or RS-212D)? How was the experience? Thank you as always
Maybe I should elaborate a bit. The LH-8000 is a Urushi lacquered Japanese oak headshell. The finger lift can be removed to save a little extra mass as well.
It is designed to be a perfect match with our arms, although I'm sure there are other great headshells out there which will also be suitable.
