These arms have been discussed here in the vinyl circle before. I stumbled upon what appears to be a U.S. source for these arms:

www.finestcable.com/tone_arm

So if you're looking for a well made arm at a reasonable cost....here's an option. It doesn't appear that they handle the 750D arm as shown on the Jelco website; just the 250 series. The 750D can be viewed at www.jelco-ichikawa.co.jp/e_tone_arm.htm

(I am not affiliated, nor endorsing....just an FYI) As has been mentioned before also; Elusive Disc has the remaining inventory of the Audioquest branded arms. www.elusivedisc.com/products.asp?dept.=1352

These tone arms are damn fine if you ask me. I may source one for a DIY table I am considering.  :drool:

Yup. Good bearings, good wiring, good machining work :)

(note: the 250 series are not fluid damped, but they do have adjustable VTA..unlike a Rega. the Audioquest and the 750 Jelco have fluid damping capability...)

Wayner,

Try to find a re-tipped Dynavector 10X4 or 10X5 for that P3. Add the Rega 2mm spacer. Silly good. :)
