Kuzma - Saphir 9 - 9" Sapphire Tonearm w/ Arm Tube

Kuzma - Safir 9 - 9" Sapphire Tonearm w/ Arm Tube

The Kuzma Safir 9 9-Inch Sapphire Tonearm with Arm Tube represents a groundbreaking achievement in turntable technology. After more than five years of research and development, the Safir 9 tonearm pushes the boundaries of analog playback to new heights. The key innovation in this tonearm is the conical sapphire arm tube, the first of its kind. Known for its extreme rigidity and resistance to unwanted resonances, sapphire provides unparalleled performance, maintaining resonance-free operation up to a high frequency of 5kHz. This allows for a cleaner, more accurate signal, giving the phono cartridge generator a true "ground."

The Safir 9's in-house designed bearings are another highlight, using four sharp spikes resting against ruby cups. This unique multi-point bearing design is an improvement on the highly successful Kuzma 4Point system, ensuring stability and precision in every movement. The sapphire arm tube is housed within a solid aluminum and brass structure, effectively dissipating vibrations and providing a mechanically quiet support system. This construction is key to reducing noise and preserving the integrity of the audio signal, allowing for a more lifelike, accurate playback experience.

The Kuzma Safir 9 Sapphire Tonearm offers an exceptional level of performance for audiophiles seeking the utmost precision from their turntable setup. With its innovative sapphire tube, advanced bearing design, and high-quality construction, this tonearm brings out the full potential of any high-end phono cartridge. It provides an unparalleled listening experience, revealing more detail and nuance from your records than ever before, making it an essential component for serious vinyl enthusiasts.
