IKEDA SOUND LABS IT 407 tonearm
Designed and
built by the old Isamu Ikeda. Way back in 1967, Ikeda-san founded Fidelity
Research, a celebrated Japanese firm that left its mark on the analog world with
its tonearms (FR series), cartridges (FR-1 and MC-202) and step up. By 1986 he
had founded Ikeda Sound Labs, specializing in low-compliance moving-coil
cartridges and high-mass, transcription-length tonearms.
The Ikeda 407 is GREAT with the high mass, low compliance cartridges, like Ortofon SPU and the EMT TSD15SFL; with this combination you can obtain a magical sound, emotionally involving and very tactile. A FUN way to listen to music with a GREAT performer.
