  • Automatic Tracking Tone Arm

    Messrs. Cliftophone and Records had another interesting tonearm on show at Olympia, and this, if used with the B.T.H. pick-up, is so arranged that the track of the pick-up is automatically kept fairly straight, and the needle is kept practically parallel to the groove across the majority of the playing surface of the record.

    It consists of a parallel action tonearm attached to a supporting pillar, so that alignment is maintained throughout the majority of the. track.

    Complete with the pick-up this device costs £3.

    This tonearm, however, has no adjustment-for weight, although, during a short test I had, I could detect no excessive wear on the record.
