Origin Live Silver Tonearm
The Silver Tonearm received widespread acclaim for outperforming high-end arms at a fraction of the cost. This British tonearm is hailed by the editor of Hi-Fi World as the best arm he’d ever heard, the Silver set the benchmark for our cost-effective designs that overtook both the SME and Ekos arms in performance.
Reviews
Transrotor Dark Star review by Novo Magazine
"I was impressed with the natural, rich midrange, and the sense of glow in the reverb around her voice. The treble was silky smooth without undue accentuation, lending to holographic imaging. There was no doubt that the Dark Star could deliver imaging, front-to-back layering as well as solid left to right placement"
