JMW 10 Zoll - 3D Printed Uni Pivot Tonarm - VPI
VPI JMW 10" 3D Printed Uni-Pivot Tonearm - Precision in Perfection
The **VPI JMW 10" 3D Printed Uni-Pivot Tonearm** is the result of decades of development and innovation in the high-end analog sector. As a further development of the multi-award-winning JMW series, this tonearm combines state-of-the-art manufacturing technology and sonically superior materials - for uncompromising precision when tracking your records.
Highlights and features
3D-printed tonearm made from one piece
The arm itself is manufactured from a special, low-resonance polymer using an innovative 3D printing process. The result is a completely solid, seamless construction without glued or screwed joints - for maximum structural rigidity and minimal resonance.
Uni-Pivot bearing technology
The patented uni-pivot bearing allows the tonearm to move extremely freely and evenly in all axes. As a result, the JMW 10" follows the groove with impressive precision and attention to detail. At the same time, this system reduces friction and material fatigue to a minimum.
10-inch arm length for a smaller tracking error angle
With its 10-inch length, the tonearm offers improved geometry and reduces the tracking error angle compared to shorter arms. This minimizes distortion and ensures a more natural, balanced sound across the entire record side.
Counterweight with fine adjustment
The precisely adjustable counterweight allows exact adjustment of the support weight to a wide range of cartridges. An additional lateral anti-skating weight ensures maximum control and balance during tracking.
Internal cabling made of high-quality copper
The signal is routed inside the arm via high-purity copper cables from VPI, which ensure maximum signal purity and loss-free transmission. The connection is made via high-quality RCA or XLR outputs, depending on the base used.
Modular & interchangeable
Like all tonearms in the JMW series, this arm is also fully modular: The entire arm, including cartridge, can be removed and replaced - ideal for listening comparisons or multiple cartridge configurations.
