REK-O-KUT®
S-260 MKII
EXTRA LONG,
AUDIOPHILE, 16"
TRANSCRIPTION ARM
(complete with
standard cable)
"Very accurate tracking
with your arm even on some warped records."
There are very few modern tonearms that actually have 16" transcription disc capacity. Few less that are true 12" (305 mm) in effective length. Those available else ware cost many times the price of the S-260 MKII. This extra length also has advantages for 12" LP records, in that there is much less tracking error. Unlike vintage Rek-O-Kut arms, the S-260 MKII accepts standard removable headshells to facilitate switching cartridges and styli, precise tracking and anti-skating force adjustment, a damped cuing arm, and lower mass.
