About the AS-309R

The Ortofon AS-309R is a premium 12-inch tonearm representing the latest evolution of Ortofon's tonearm design philosophy since 1953. Featuring over 130 redesigned components, the AS-309R is meticulously hand-assembled and adjusted by skilled artisans to ensure unmatched quality and performance. All materials have been carefully selected to minimize unwanted vibration and distortion, delivering crisp, clear, and accurate sound reproduction. The tonearm is statically balanced for simplified needle pressure adjustment and includes an easy-to-set anti-skating feature. It is built to fulfill Baerwald alignment, resulting in minimum tracking error. The AS-309R comes with the premium Ortofon 6NX-TSW-1010 tonearm cable and includes two counterweight options, allowing compatibility with cartridges ranging from the Ortofon Concorde Series to the SPU Series, as well as any cartridge mounted on a suitable headshell. The 5-pin DIN tonearm socket ensures broad compatibility with various tonearm cables, making it highly versatile for different vinyl playback setups.
