The Artemiz uses Roksan's Intelligent Counterweight System which dynamically optimises the tracking force. Single point suspension minimises the transmission of unwanted mechanical noise to the cartridge and the low centre of gravity improves dynamic stability. Unique pyramidal bearings lower friction and allow for rapid changes in direction and speed that tonearms experience.
Additionally, optimum matching to the weight of the cartridge is achieved using different counter weight blocks. The Artemiz fixing clamp and washer maximise the force required to couple the tone arm to the armboard correctly.
To ensure excellent signal transfer and complete noise immunity, the Artemiz is fitted with a printed circuit board in lieu of internal wires. Left and right signal tracks from the cartridge are shielded all the way by ground tracks on either side.
Unique arm tube, bearing and arm coupling design of the Artemiz increases the first resonance break of the arm to 1.4kHz almost 50% higher than other high end tone arms and thus provides the cartridge with the best platform to track records and retrieve maximum information with live performance like dynamics.
Specifications:
The offset bearing geometry is similar to that of the Artemiz with 2 vertical and 2 lateral low friction low noise ball races. The tone arm pillar in arm mounting base plate is locked into position with a socket cap screw to allow easy adjustment of the Vertical Tracking Angle (VTA).
The Tabriz is upgradeable to the Tabriz zi specification which uses the Roksan Intelligent Counterweight, Artemiz fixing clamp and washer and Roksan's High Definition tonearm cable.
Used with any Roksan turntable, the arm is self effacing merely providing a blank background into which sounds materialise.
Specifications:
The Tabriz is also available and upgradeable to Tabriz ZI specification which utilizes the ROKSAN Intelligent Counterweight, Artemiz fixing clamp and washer together with ROKSAN's high definition tonearm cable.
Primary Features Include: Top support frame machined from Delrin: A high grade engineering plastic, providing efficient damping in a critical area. Low centre of gravity: For improved dynamic stability. Replaceable counterweight blocks: For optimum matching to the weight of the cartridge.
