4Point 9

Kuzma Tonearm 4 Point 9

4Point 9

The 4Point 9 is a shorter and simpler tonearm built around the unique 4Point bearing system. Using a standard post and collar arrangement for height adjustment allows us to dispense with the precision VTA tower, significantly reducing the overall mass of the tonearm, making it both more affordable and more compatible with a wider range of (especially lightweight suspended) turntables, bringing the sonic and musical advantages of the 4Point performance to more systems and a wider audience.

Like all Kuzma arms, the 4Point 9’s parts, including the sophisticated, two-part tapered arm tube and are machined from solid aluminium or brass blocks.

Despite superior mechanical integrity achieved, there is no compromise in the adjustability of cartridge alignment parameters so vital to the best analogue replay. Every aspect of cartridge attitude can be precision adjusted – minutely and repeatedly. The brass counterweight moves on a fine thread for precision adjustment of VTF and once set, locks in place. Like the longer 4Point arms, the entire arm-wand and counterweight assembly can be removed to allow the swapping of cartridge/arm assemblies while retaining every aspect of cartridge alignment.

The 4Point 9 employs a one-piece, high-quality, Kuzma specified silver arm-lead that runs from cartridge tags to RCA connectors, although users can specify either balanced XLR or 5-pin Din termination as alternatives. Simpler in use, more widely compatible and more affordable to own, the 4Point 9 makes bringing live music home easier than its ever been.
