Turntables with metal arm
Metal
— tonearms made of metal (usually aluminium alloy) are inferior to carbon ones in terms of vibration resistance, and they weigh a little more. On the other hand, the difference here and there is not particularly great, for low-cost and medium category players, metal is quite suitable by itself, and in top-end players, various design features can be provided to ensure proper quality. At the same time, such tonearms are cheaper than carbon ones.Show
