Description
The Sony PUA-1500S and 1500L were improved versions of the professional PUA-237 and 286 tonearms, designed to extract optimum performance from your sound system.
True precision in the manufacturing process, excellent design, and Sony craftsmanship are combined to provide a remarkable component for your sound system.

A special lateral balancer completely different from that of ordinary tonearms, which once lateral balance is obtained, it will be maintained when the stylus descends on a record.
