New $35K pivoting tonearm


Vertere Audio is Touraj Moghaddam cofounder of Roksan.

It has some interesting features including aligning the pivots to the offset angle rather than the arm tube, and bearings that don't rotate, made out of polymer-metal laminate film. Has 240mm effective length.

This came up on Audio Circle and somebody said it sounds good. I certainly hope so. Anybody else?

$35000 for a tone arm?? One thing for sure...JV will review it and give it a rave review if he can use it as a long term reference.
Rereading the description it seems the headshell and armtube are made separately then welded together.

It says, horizontal and vertical bearings are offset by 23mm so the effective length is different in the 2 planes and correctly optimized. I don't see how this is any different from other arms with offset bearings.

$35,000.00 tone arm, at lease for this money you have something to play with.
I think the wire industry tops it all even surpassing the cryogenic treated cable elevators .
There are many examples and right now on sale here on Audiogon,
a 6 foot Elrod ac cord for $15,000.00 marked down because it is used ,yours only $8,000.00,....
The envelope is always pushed only when there are customers that are willing to buy into it , I think this speaks volumes and I need to come out with a new line of wire,....
are the additional conductors in the wire feed for led lights on/in the tonearm? or am i imagining this?
