Gold Note B-5.1 - Arm

B-5.1

The B-5.1 is an elegant and high-performance tonearm designed, manufactured and assembled by hand in Italy using the best machinery and materials available today.
Behind its simplicity of use, the B-5.1 hides refined technical solutions to achieve excellent sonic results.

Equipped with 4 precision micro-bearings manufactured in Germany by GRW to exacting specifications, the tonearm manages to minimise noise and friction whilst simultaneously extracting every musical detail from the vinyl groove.

With its 23mm diameter turntable pin and an effective length of 242mm, the B-5.1 can be easily installed on any quality turntable.

The double counterweight allows you to mount a wide variety of heads up to 15 grams in weight, and even more with the ability to add additional optional weights.
