ABOUT
The Satisfy Black tonearm, fitted to the Concept and Concept Wood turntables, elevates the sonic performance to allow the use of high performance MM and MC cartridges including our Maestro, Charisma, Essence and Talismann.
The Satisfy Black tonearm features high-quality, handmade Swiss vertical and lateral bearings composed of tungsten steel and polished sapphire. The low mass, rigid aluminum arm tube uses a two-piece aluminum headshell with adjustable azimuth for accurate alignment of the phono cartridge and easy in-field replacement. Anti-skating control is applied by an innovative magnetic system that acts on the side of the bearing housing. Clearaudio’s hardwired Direct Wire tonearm cable assures signal integrity, ideal for all high-quality MM and MC cartridges.
