SAEC WE-308

High end Japanese tonearm with double knife-edge bearings

Description

The SAEC WE-308 is designed to offer the new reference standard of tone arm engineering for the serious audiophile.

The Audio Engineering's remarkable approach toward the perfection of disc sound is crystallized in the WE-308's unique construction, the Double Knife Edge.

This newer construction covers up disadvantages of conventional knife edge type tone arms.

The Double Knife Edge provides the lowest friction level and highest sensitive movement of the tone arm ever achieved.

Therefore, the WE-308 with any advanced cartridge tracks the record groove with less distortion than ever and reproduces clear directionality, pinpoint placement of instruments and phenomenal cleanness of the disc sound.
