The ViV laboratory Liquid Float Tonearm range of tonearms offers a unique place almost anywhere, a freestanding design where you do not need a tonearm mount. This feature is very handy for adding a second tonearm or if you do not want to drill your turntable to take a particular model of tonearm. ViV laboratory Liquid Float Features: ・OIL FLOATED PIVOTThe ViV lab’s original OIL FLOATED PIVOT not only gives perfect bearing performance but also insulates the arm pipe from the vibration via the floor or turntable. At the same time, this pivot shuts out the reflection of vibration generated by the stylus. As a result, the sound has the highest purity with dynamics, sharp focus and very low distortion. We are sure no one has ever experienced such a sound from vinyl disks. ・NO OFFSET-ANGLE STRUCTUREWe believe that the elbow-shaped arm with offset angle and overhang setting affect seriously to the sound quality because of side force fluctuation, which can never be cancelled by the anti-skating mechanism. So we dare to choose a completely straight (i.e. NO OFFSET-ANGLE) structure. You may ask, “What about trucking error?”, and the answer is, “The trucking error is a little bigger, but the sound is much better.” You can hear no distortion even with the 7” model. ・EASY INSTALLATIONUnlike other tonearms, “Rigid Float/H” is very easy to install. You do not have to drill your turntable plinth nor lift up so heavy turntable, just put it anywhere on your turntable plinth. You can also put it outside the plinth of your turntable. ・Silk jacketed 4N silver inner wire and rhodium-plated terminals ensure a minimum signal loss. ・2 colour variations (Black Metallic, Black&Gold) and 3 length variations (7” , 9” , 13” ) are available. ・Azimuth adjustable.
