Sorane Tonearms
Sorane tonearms (pronounced so-rah-nay) are hand-crafted at a small family-run factory based just outside Tokyo, Japan. Offering tonearms in three distinct models from the traditional design of the TA-1, to more exotic SA-1.2 and ZA-12, the Sorane brand offers incredibly high quality tonearms at a fair price. Sorane has become a popular choice for audiophiles looking to upgrade their existing tonearms, add a second tonearm to their setup, and for use with custom made or vintage idler-drive designs.
SA-1.2 and SA-1.2b
With an armwand machined from solid aluminum billet, and using a uniquely designed thrust bearing for low-friction horizontal movement, the SA-1.2 tonearm from Sorane operates with incredible mechanical efficiency, bringing out the maxiumum performance of your phono cartridge. With an adjustable weight built directly into the armwand of the SA-1.2, the effective mass of the arm can be dialed-in, making it a great match for picky, low-compliance cartridges. Fully adjustable anti-skate, azimuth, removable headshell, included DIN-RCA cable, and heavy counterweight are all standard features on this high performance tonearm. Available with Pure Silver Cable
