Even better is the OL\/RB250. With its superior bearing arrangement and no tracking force spring to add resonances, it's a true giant killer. It has all the dynamic power and seismic bass of a £2000 super arm but costs a fraction to buy. With Origin Live's rewiring, it's one of the best arms money can buy and no less a bargain.\"\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e-DAVID PRICE HI-FI WORLD MAGAZINE\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMODIFICATION No. 1 - Structural\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eImprovement = 73% (percentage improvement is relative to an arm incorporating all the mods listed here). The cost of the structural mod has been kept well below it's actual performance value so that it is within reach of those with budget turntables.

The arm builds on the success of the highly acclaimed OL\/RB250 and still uses the RB250 base. However, the more critical components of the tone arm have been upgraded using advanced alloys and innovative techniques to massively improve performance. The result of these upgrades is an incredibly transparent arm with superb tonal balance. The sound produced is free from colouration allowing previously unheard low level information to be noticed clearly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\"the Silver 250 is .... the very best tonearm I've ever heard …awsomely tight bottom end...the midband - glass clear, incredibly liquid, fantastic image precision, walkaround soundstaging and incredible timbral realism.....the treble is shockingly open and airy up top... the £599 price tag is laughably low ....could probably charge 5 times this amount.....words can’t express how good this is - one of the designs of the decade\"\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHI-FI WORLD March 2002\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- New armtube made from high grade aircraft alloy.\u003cbr\u003e- New headshell decoupled and rigidly attached to the armtube.\u003cbr\u003e- Rear Stub and counterweight design is the same as the highly acclaimed Origin live Rega structural modification.\u003cbr\u003e- The horizontal bearings have been upgraded to a higher ABEC specification.
