The new Ortofon TA-210 tonearm has gone to the next level of reducing unwanted vibrations in the tonearm by adding more damping material in more places when compared to it's younger sibling, the TA-110. Ortofon's extensive knowledge of vibration properties and characteristics in different shapes and materials has been applied for optimization of the TA-210 tonearm.
The TA-210 is given a precision machined slit in each end of the aluminum tube. A piece of Ortofon special vibration damping compound is integrated into each slit. The bottom slit has rubber inserts with high vibration damping properties, and the other top-facing slit has a special proprietary TPE compound with excellent damping properties. Due to the use of these two different materials, an extended damping effect is obtained in the largest possible range. Both inserts integrated in the tonearm tube are manufactured at the Ortofon technical facilities in Nakskov, Denmark.
Key Features:
•Supplied with LH-2000E headshell and 6NX-TSW-1010 tonearm cables
