THE NEW JMW 10.5i AND 12.5i MEMORIAL TONEARMS

Do to the world wide reviewer acclaim of the JMW-9 and 9 Signature something needed to be done to keep the 10" and 12" arms sonically in the lead. The new JMW 10.5i and 12.5i Memorial tonearms begin where the JMW 10 and 12 leave off. Although they share much of their predecessors' design, including the precision unipivot, damped stainless steel/aluminum arm tube, and high-quality internal wiring, the 10.5i and 12.5iincorporate several significant improvements:

• The larger dropped counterweight puts more mass below the arm's pivot point for improved stability.
• A secondary mounting with underbase has been placed between the arm rest and the arm lift to greatly improve the arm's rigidity literally making these the only arms that can do VTA adjustments while listening and then be locked as rigid as a solid mounted arm. Do not discount this function, it counts for the speed and low bass detail in the 10.5i and 12.5i
• A large knurled VTA tower with a smooth precise feel makes it easy to set VTA during play. This is of major importance with the new set of high definition cartridges now available
• The azimuth ring on the 10.5i has the larger side weights of the 12.5i for improved stability.
• Fluid damping is available for cartridges that require it (Grado, Clearaudio)
• All possible parameters are adjustable on these tonearms.
• Both arms available with Nordost Valhalla wire and balanced output connections.
• The 10.5i tonearm wand does not fit the 10.5 or 10 tonearm base. The 10.5i is 12 mm longer and will not work on older JMW 10" arm bases.
