WOOD AND METAL

The platter, made from plywood, cherry and metal, runs calmly and evenly.

A TONEARM FROM A CELLO BOW

The tube of the 10-inch tonearm comes from a cello bow and rests on a balance wheel from watchmaking.

LIMITED TO 20 UNITS

Each one is made by hand in Germany.

A high end turntable made of wood

Calm you can hear

Wood damps vibration naturally. That is why the plinth and platter of the Arco 40 are made from 19-layer plywood, aged for more than 25 years, with 2 mm cherry veneers.

Inside the platter, the wood is joined by a 2.5 mm metal plate. At 2,000 grams it has enough mass to turn evenly, and enough wood to keep resonances from passing on. What you hear is the recording, and less of the turntable.

The tonearm from a cello bow

Precisely guided, free to move

The name Arco comes from music: it means playing with the bow. On the Arco 40 this is meant literally. The tube of the 10-inch tonearm is made from a cello bow, a material chosen over generations for vibration and sound.

The arm is supported at a single point on a precision balance wheel from watchmaking. This lets the cartridge follow the groove freely, and the fine details of the music remain intact.

Driven by a Swiss precision motor

The Arco 40 is driven by a Maxon motor from Switzerland, governed by a dedicated, separate control unit. The belt is a thin, waxed and silver-plated nylon thread. It passes the motor's force gently to the platter, so the music moves at its own pace.

A bearing that hardly brakes

The platter's dual bearing runs with very little friction. After switching off at 33⅓ rpm, the platter keeps turning for more than four minutes.

Tonearm cable made from aged copper

The tonearm cable is made by hand from copper that is more than 50 years old and shielded by a copper braid. It uses no plastic insulation.

Who the Arco 40 is for

The Arco 40 is for people who want to hear their record collection calmly and naturally, and who care about materials and craft. It is supplied without a cartridge, so you can choose the one that suits you. Our suggestion is the Aventurin 6 MC, together with the Stateline Phono 2 Signature phono preamplifier and the Achat 1 alignment gauge.
