    From R&D to Reality:

    A Better Headshell Washer


    Solid Brass Headshell Washer for SME Type Connector

    After extensive R&D on turntable headshells, we developed a solid brass tapered washer to replace the conventional rubber washer.

    Positive test results inspired us to launch this washer as a standalone upgrade product, enhancing the performance of tonearms with removable headshell.


    Benefits for Sound Quality



    Improved Mechanical Stability:


    Achieve a solid and precise fit between tonearm and headshell connectors, ensuring no wear over time and consistent alignment when disassembling and reassembling the headshell.


    Improved Vibration Damping:


    C36000 brass offers moderate vibration damping characteristics, providing an excellent solution for rigidity without ringing. Excessive damping can lose musical information, and brass strikes the right balance.


    Improved Shielding:


    Unlike rubber, brass is electrically conductive. The solid washer improves headshell electrical grounding, allowing it to act as an additional shield against hum and electrical interferences when grounded.
