About the Classic II

The Audiomods Classic II tonearm is a precision-engineered, hand-built product by Jeff Spall, designed for audiophiles seeking high performance at a moderate price. It features a redesigned multilayer arm tube of increased diameter, combined with a new bearing assembly and cryo-treated silver litz wiring. The counterweight uses a constrained layer design composed of brass and lead layers to absorb energy and reduce resonance. The anti-skate system is a refined weight-on-string mechanism with a specially designed plate for precise and consistent force application. Wiring consists of a single run of Cardas 33 gauge tone arm wire with Mitchell silver plated cartridge clips and Eichmann RCA connectors. The arm has an effective length of 239.5mm and an effective mass between 9 and 11 grams, depending on counterweight configuration. It offers excellent bass response with tight, fast, and natural bass lines, and presents recordings in a natural and engaging manner. Each arm is custom built to customer specifications and shipped in a protective wooden box. The Classic II is praised for its balance of technical performance and musical enjoyment, making it a highly regarded tonearm in its price range, approximately .
