An absolute joy to deal with.
Pete is patient, understanding,
and will take every necessary step
to ensure his product exceeds
your expectations. Have a tonearm
without
adjustable VTA? You must
investigate the VTAF!
-Dale Humphrey
TONE ARMS TO WHICH THE VTAF HAS BEEN ADAPTED:
The VTAF was developed for post mounted Rega tonearms
(the RB250, the RB300 and the RB600). We have since adapted the VTAF to all of the three point mount Rega tonearms (RB251,
RB301, RB303, RB700, RB900, and RB1000). In addition, we can provide VTAF units for the post mounted arms of most
manufacturers. The range of VTAF variations has been extended to accept arms with post diameters ranging from the smallest up
to of 1.127 inches (28.6 mm). Examples are included below. Chances are good that we can provide a VTAF for your arm. If
you do not see your tone arm, please inquire. As you can see from the listing below, we can mount almost any arm to
almost any table using the VTAF.
The VTAF is not suitable for use with Graham or Tri-Planer
arms, which have mounting systems substantially offset from the center of gravity of the tonearm assembly. The
VTAF is not suitable for use with straight line tracking arms.
Arms to which the VTAF has been adapted are
listed below. Again, please let us know if you do not see your arm listed. Telephone: 509 582 4548 email:

Generally speaking, the VTAF can be adapted to most tonearms that
have the pivot center on the same vertical axis as the mounting system.
An incomplete list of arms the VTAF can
be adapted to includes: Acoustic Research, Ariston, ADC, Alphason, Audiocraft, Audio Note, Audioquest, Audio Technica, BBC,
Bel Canto, Bluenote, Brinkman, Connoiseur, Clearaudio, Da Vinci, Decca, Denon, Dynavector, Empire, EMT, ESL, Excel Sound Corp.,
Fidelity Research, Formula, Funk Firm F5, Grace, Grado, Hadcock, Helius, Heybrook, Ikeda, Infinity, Jelco (and any of the
arms manufactured for others by Jelco), JH Reproducers, Kieth Monks, Kuzma, Linn, Linn mount arms, Logic, Manticore,
Mayware, Michell, Micro Seiki, Mission, Moth, Moerch, Nottingham, Naim, Odyssey, Origin Live, Ortofon,
Pickering, Pro-ject, Pete Riggle Woody, Rega, Rek-O-Kut, Rocksan, SAEC, Scheu, SME, Sonus, Sansui, Shure, Signet,
Sony, Sparta, Stax, Sumiko, Schroeder, Schick, Syrinx, Systemdek, Thorens, Transcriptor, Ultracraft, VPI, Wilson Benesch,
and Zeta.
The list of tonearms the VTAF can not be adapted to is tiny compared to the list of tonearms the VTAF
can be adapted to. In particular, the VTAF will not work with linear tracking tonearms or tonearms in which the mounting post
is substantially offset from the tonearm pivot (examples: Wheaton Tri-Planer, Graham Phantom).
