Clearaudio Pivoted Tonearms

Not sure that you're ready for a linear tracking tonearm? If so, no problem. Clearaudio offers a variety of pivoted tonearms to suit any audiophiles' budget. From the new Unify uni-pivot tonearm that offers performance not before realized at its price point, to modified Rega tonearms that increase the level of performance from an already great sounding product.

Two bearing designs are commonly available in pivoted tonearms: unipivot and multi-point bearings. Unipivot designs have a single point of contact, minimising friction for clear, open musical sound.

Unify


The entry into high-end music reproduction is now possible with the new "Unify" Tonearm by Clearaudio.

The unique design is built around a unipivot sapphire bearing that sits on top of a precision hardned steel spike. This beautifully finished tonearm offers all the various adjustments necessary, including VTA, anti-skating and Azimuth.

Distinguished construction features of the Unify tonearm include a stainless steel base, and aluminum tonearm bearing housing, and a carbon fibre tonearm tube. The quality of construction and low bearing friction produces world-class sound.

The Unify is available either hard-wired with our Sixstream cable or terminated with an RCA junction box.

**Now also available** 10 and 14 inch versions

Rega tonearms


The direct rewired RB 300 Sixstream updates a popular tonearm with a special graphite finish which provides added resonance control. Clearaudio rewires the arm with the Sixstream, a 6 conductor, teflon insulated wire as a continuous run from the headshell leads to the hardwired 1 meter cable terminated with Clearaudio MPC RCA plugs. This tonearm is at home in any high quality analog system. We also offer rewiring for both the RB 250 and RB 300 with our Quint wire.
