VTAF Units for Most Tonearm Models:

The VTAF was originally 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, RB1000, and more recent Rega tonearm models).  In addition, we can provide VTAF units for the post mounted arms of most manufacturers.  Here are images of a Rega RB250 tonearm with the VTAF and our Counterweight for the Common Man (CCM). The finish in the left hand photo is Lacquered Brass. The finish in the right hand photo is Smokey Silver.
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 in our list of tonearms below, please inquire ([email protected] or telephone 509 582 4548.  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: [email protected]

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, 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).

See our Price List for prices for VTAF units for many tonearms, and for other products including VTAF accessories, counterweights for Rega tonearms, and our Woody Universal and Woody SPU Tonearms.

inner detail, air and soundstaging over the
original rigid mounting system." - Jeff Day
