Acoustical Systems Aquilar Tonearm

Acoustical Systems Aquilar Tonearm — your 10″ & 12″ reference tonearm. Immediately audible, outperforming all other tonearms except the AXIOM, offers many of the prime choices, expensive materials, and most of the unique technical critical solutions, which made the AXIOM’s performance easily stand ahead of all competition.

In the past two years, Acoustical Systems research and development have dedicated a lot of energy, time, money, and brainstorming to offering the unique sonic abilities of the AXIOM in a more affordable version: the Aquilar. To create an all-new superior 10″ tonearm design – which also should be easy to mount on all turntables thanks to the slightly reduced effective length.

Exceptionally high levels of execution mark all Acoustical Systems products; manufacturing and finish are of the highest order, with considerable thought devoted to materials and design. The attention to detail in the Acoustical Systems Aquilar Tonearm is shown in the performance, with a “company sound.” It is a natural, non-fatiguing, well-integrated, highly musical presentation. It is rich with musical detail, making listening to great audio a memorable experience.
