Thales Statement
Ultimate Tonearm
The Thales Statement confirms again the unchallenged reference status of analogue music reproduction. It proves experience, thorough reflection, and careful craftwork to be able to achieve considerable progress in sound quality with this old technology even today – for a technique dating back to 1888, this is anything but self-evident.
Based on tetragon geometry, reducing the tracking error to a maximum of 0.006°, the Thales Statement combines perfect tracking geometry with optimized mechanical energy derivation, being realized by consequent reflection on the materials used (high-strength aluminium alloy), and the design of all the parts placed in the energy flow. Thus, vibration resistance is increased many times over, and sound distortion due to parasitic remaining resonances is plainly reduced both measurably and audibly.
The Thales Statement comes with an integrated mechanism and a scale for fine adjustment of VTA and azimuth, allowing precise angular alignment of the cartridge. The support of the tonearm lift, coupled directly with its lever, works by a high reduction ratio so that the needle may be lowered in a perfectly controlled manner.
The product is available in three different colours: silver, gold and black. Options for tonearm wiring are either an integrated 5-pin-DIN-connector or direct wiring to the amplifier.
