Origin Live Conqueror MK4 9.5" Tonarm

CONQUEROR Almost nothing compares “Arguably the very best tonearm yet made – a startlingly capable all rounder with none of the vices or quirks of rival super-arms…” HiFi World Performance Conqueror is the culmination of many years of research work into tonearm design, and sounds light years ahead of its time. It incorporates a number of idealistic principles into engineering practice, to deliver superlative sonic performance. Compared to more affordable Origin Live tonearms, it there’s an obvious increase in transparency, and with it a heightened sense of realism. Music sounds more natural and less processed, as if a bright light has been shone on the recording and it’s there in front of you, in all its glory. Yet it confers an uncanny smoothness on the music, too; there’s a wonderful sense of ease and rhythmic ebb and flow. Bass is yet more powerful and defined than Illustrious, which is no small feat. Vocals shimmer with natural timbre, and stereo imaging is almost holographic. eatures • Hybrid arm tube composed of 5 materials, for superb energy dissipation • Ultra low friction dual-pivot bearings for optimum treble performance Dual-Pivot explained • Floating vertical bearings decouple the armtube from the deck, reducing coloration • High strength aircraft alloy headshell for increased dynamics • Internal high grade copper Litz wire with gold plated copper berylium cartridge tags • Silver Hybrid external arm cable • Copper Harmony single point contact RCA plugs for high conductivity and minimal eddy currents • Integral VTA adjustment • Fits all Rega armboard cutouts – old style threaded base or new 3-point mounting
