Michell T 3
FEATURES
T 3
Excelling a more compelling and functional design than its predecessor, this T3 tonearm sets the perfect example of improved ergonomics and user experience. The T3 tonearm features an integrated arm clip, stiffer vertical bearing housing and an improved spring housing with easy to read numbers.
To improve lower friction, horizontal and vertical bearings, the T3 tonearm features a low capacitance phono cable featuring premium-quality Neutrik RCAs.
The improved design also includes an advanced bearing housing and a tonearm tube for redistribution of mass to ensure the arm will showcase fewer points for resonance.
Michell T3 tonearm possesses a stable design that offers a friction-free movement. It helps the cartridge to move inwards by maintaining its position for accurate and precise performance.
The T3 tonearm applies the right amount of weight to the stylus to ensure ultra-low mass resonance. It increases connectivity and provides the signal path is kept as clean as possible for high-quality audio performance.

FEATURES
TecnoArm 2
Based on the Rega RB250, the Michell TechnoArm 2 is a low-mass reference tonearm. The custom one-piece arm tube with integrated headshell is designed to match the finish of the Gyrodec, and is available in silver or black.
Utilizing a custom one piece arm tube, the tube is shot-blasted to make it more rigid and then 22 holes are drilled in the shaft to reduce mass. The underside of the integral head shell is machined to be perfectly parallel with the bearing position. The tonearm is then assembled using the new ultra-low friction polymer bearings and mounted on a redesigned mounting base.
The TecnoArm 2 is wired using Michell's proprietary wiring loom and 99.9999% pure silver litz wire, from cartridge tags to phono plugs, with no internal wiring joints. The TecnoWeight counter weight allows you to set the tracking force for your chosen cartridge easily and the new VTA/SRA adjuster sets the height of your tonearm, ensuring the stylus tracks the vinyl groove at the correct angle.
The TecnoArm 2 has been designed to offer a truly audiophile listening experience with exceptional value.
