TA01 Zero Tracking Error Tonearm

The complex kinematics of the Thiele TA01 combines the exact and firm guidance of a pivoted tonearm with the advantages of a linear tracking tonearm. This design enables a guiding of the pickup with a lateral tracking angle error of less than 0,036 degrees. The double wall tonearm-tube is filled with 2 component-gel for optimum damping. The design results in a unique spatial resolution, extreme richness of detail and perfect tonality.

DOES THE TA01 FIT TO MY TURNTABLE?

The geometry and size of the Thiele TA01 is dimensioned in a way, that it can be mounted on every turntable which is designed for 9“ or 10“ conventional tonearms. The supplied massive alumium alignment protractor allows for an absolute precise positioning of the Thiele TA01 tonearm on your turntable.

Reviews

Dirk Sommer Hifistatement

"Rarely have I listened to a tonearm as intensively and for as long as this one: It helps all the cartridges used to achieve top sonic performance, is not noticeable itself, is easy to set up and adjust, is visually reminiscent of modern architecture and has an extremely high-quality finish. With the TA01, Helmut Thiele has created an innovative dream tonearm."
