Nevertheless the SME change its classical character, but it sounds with the tweaks on a premier level. Voices have more chest and instruments of more body. The tonearm wins resolution, deeper and more controlled lows and a outstanding dynamic. This is in particular interresant for owners of the Garrard 301/401 turntables, since no further spacer is necessary for the assembly of the SME tonearm. The height of the bronze groundplate is 10 mm, so the tonearm comes approximately 7mm higher. Opposite of the original design of the tonearm with the bronze groundplate is fixed firmly and to the adjustment the entire bronze groundplate including tonearm shifted. The bronze groundplate is from the mounting points compatible to the original dimensions of SME baseplate. The bronze groundplate replace the original baseplate made of sheet metal with a more solid and resonance optimized baseplate made of bronze alloy. *Reference lines on tone-arm facilitate VTA setting.Die deutsche Überarbeitung wird nachgereicht. *Swiveling damped output socket minimises vibration transmission in sub-chassis use. Adjustment leadscrew journalled in twin ball races with lever clamping. *Underslung weight housing corrects centre of gravity and provides non-reflective tone-arm termination. Extra-low inertia design assists warp riding.
*Tungsten-alloy balance weight carried on damped two-point suspension. *Dual-lock base provides movement control with high rigidity. *Lowering/raising control gives smooth positive action. Dial corresponds with VTF and haspositive OFF position. *Anti-skate control operates through tension spring and filarnent. *23mm diameter steel pillar, heat treated, ground and honed, carries two 17mm ABEC 7 ball races, widely spaced to resist tilt. *Stainless steel vertical shaft, ground and thread ground, with integral 16mm diameter flange to couple shaft and yoke. *Unique assembly gives high rigidity and allows bearings to be critically adjusted before tone-arm is fitted. Axis at record mean level to minimise warp-wow. Carried in massive yoke on 10mm ABEC 3 ball races. *Stainless steel cross shaft, ground and thread ground. *Fine machined cartridge platform, enamel free to avoid interface resonance. *Internal constrained layer damps minute residual vibration leaving the tone-arm acoustically inert. *Unique one-piece pressure die-cast tone-arm utilising the advantages of magnesium, replaces conventional fabricated construction. The Series IV is a worthy relative of "the best pick-up arm in the world" with a sonic performance reflecting the care and attention to detail underlying its design and manufacture. Although presented at a lower price it retains the unique one-piece magnesium tone-arm dual-lock base and other advances features. The Series IV precision pick-up arm owes much of its technology developed for the acclaimed Series V.
