Technics EPA 250
Gimbal bearing tonearm with interchangeable arm tubes. Uses the same arm base (EPA-B500) as the EPA 500 tonearm.
Description
The EPA-250 tonearm is different from conventional tonearms in that it consists of a separate arm unit which is mounted on a special arm base.
The arm unit can be likened to a camera, the EPA-B500 arm base being the body and the arm units being the interchangeable lenses.
Optional arm units can be employed in accordance to the compliance and mass of your cartridge and changed as simply as you would change a headshell.
The EPA250 is a system tonearm that assures a close matching of tonearm and cartridge characteristics.
Dynamic damping construction reduces low range resonance peak by over 4dB.
The DC resistance of the output leads is an extremely low 39.5 mohms/m and capacitance is only 41.5pF/m, which assures that you will receive optimum performance from both MM and MC type cartridges.
