Jelco Tonearms   


Jelco have made arms for most manufacturers in the past.  Their Japanese engineering is second to none (think Lexus).  They made the famous Sumiko MMT and we believe the Linn Ittock II as well.  These are some of the companies that marketed Jelco arms under their own names:  Koetsu, Sumiko, Audio quest, Linn, Oracle, Ariston, Roksan, Revolver, Mission and Graham.  Jelco make their own jewelled bearings, they are in complete control of quality.

Jelco make seriously good arms, you don't need to rewire them, or change anything.  They are perfect out of the box.  They mount using the standard Linn three hole fixing and you get fixing templates and everything you need.  We are quite confident using them on £5K turntables. 
 

SA-750  9" & 12"

This was described in Hi Fi World December 2008 as "Jelco's new premium arm.  This S-shaped device is essentially the classic and sought after Sumiko MMT reborn, and offers high quality bearings and construction together with a detachable headshell and an optional oil damping facility, all wrapped up in a seriously lovely black chrome finish"  In fact this is silver chrome, that depending on the angle of the light, appears to have an occasional black streak to it, very sexy indeed, but looks like the image to the right!

In most parts of the world detachable headshell arms are considered to be very good, this one certainly is.  You could put a £2,000 cartridge on it without any problems.  Or for the die hard 78rpm enthusiast, you could have a different cartridge and different sized stylus on a selection of headshells?
