12JT

Top development stage for AMG 12 inch tonearms through optimization of the tonearm housing, effective mass, and the expansion of adjustment options.

Integrated and direct adjustment elements for precise calibration.

Top-class auditory conciseness and spatial depth, just like the equally highly rated 12J2.

Convincing proportions, architecture and aesthetics combined with fascinating manufacturing precision.

Precision-assembled by hand, precisely measured and finally comprehensively tested.

The instrumentation:

High-precision adjustment instruments for the exact correlation of needle and groove.

In-house manufactured knurled screws with perfect haptic feedback transfer the most delicate movements directly to the fine threads.

The magnetic anti-skating system:

Magnetically acting and detailed adjustable anti-skating for perfectly centered and distortion-free groove tracking.

The VTA:

Exactly calibrated and positioned height adjustment with precise verification through the integrated spirit level.

The internal wiring:

Gold-plated connectors, custom-made cables with specific twisting to eliminate magnetic field resonances and discontinuities.

The integrated azimuth adjustment:

Precise adjustment with integrated fine thread adjustment screw for perfectly aligned groove tracking.

The arm tube:

The ratio of cross-section to unsupported length, precisely matched to the material specifications of the quality aluminum used, guarantees the lowest possible resonance behavior.

The counterweight as the basis of dynamics:

Two-part stainless steel counterweight for perfect weight adjustment. Significantly higher dynamics and directness of the needle through optimized force/mass distribution in the entire tonearm system.
