SME 309 SPD tonearm

• SME 309 SPD tonarm in excellent condition
• Original owner; tonearm was included with SME 15A turntable
• 9 inch tonearm made from single piece of Magnesium
• Detachable cast-magnesium head shell has a new type of coupling that SME claims, permits the rapid swapping in and out of cartridges without compromising overall arm rigidity
• The 309 SPD's spring and filament anti-skating system is set with calibrated dial that includes a positive Off position
• Only selling because I upgraded to SME Series V tonearm

Posted on StereoNet: "The 309 is a stunningly good arm and is among the top handful or so in the world.  SME has been making arms longer than anyone & the standard of engineering & build quality leaves most to shame regardless of cost. You will appreciate the thought that has gone into the design when you set them up with every adjustment being straight forward, precise and giving you a feeling of confidence".
