unique tonearm Brooklyn Bridge

Here's a pic of another similar arm ( personal non commercial) by the late Dave Whittaker of Aura Turntable.

Thanks. That is a way cool tonearm, and from what one can see of it, it is beautifully engineered with respect to the "problems" inherent to a pivoted tonearm. I'd love to see more detailed photos from more angles.

Hi Lewn,

From a quick search on the net, I'd found 2 more pics. It's made from balsa wood and an unipivot I think.

Well Lew... someone is a fan of the L-07D arm...

Jaspert, Thanks for the URLs, but both of them lead me to blank pages with no photos.

Travis, Possibly because I was not able to view the photos, I do not understand your reference to the L07J (what the cognoscenti know to be the model designation of the L07D tonearm). As for me, I would not say that I am a "fan". There are some things about it that do not fulfill modern ideas of tonearm perfection. But the proof is in the pudding, and it does produce good music with both my Koetsu and my Stanton 980LZS. I look forward to running the wires straight from the cartridge thru to my preamp. That should be "awesome". I suspect the arm tube and headshell are very very well damped; resonant colorations are very very low.
