Super Groove Precision

The Vertere Super Groove Precision Tonearm is a high-precision articulated tonearm designed around Vertere’s Tri-Point Articulated (TPA) bearing. Three precision silicon nitride balls support a precision-machined stainless-steel pivot, creating a stable bearing arrangement designed to eliminate unwanted bearing chatter and maintain accurate stylus movement.

Its arm tube is constructed from roll-wrapped carbon fibre, while the aluminium alloy headshell provides a rigid cartridge platform. The tonearm also incorporates a decoupled counterweight, fine tracking-weight adjustment and a bias-curve adjustable anti-skate mechanism, allowing the cartridge and arm to be carefully optimised during setup.

The Super Groove Precision Tonearm uses custom Vertere internal wiring and proprietary cartridge tags and connections with triple-thickness gold-plated contacts. Its combination of carefully controlled bearing movement, rigid construction and fine adjustment capabilities is designed to preserve musical information and provide accurate, dynamic vinyl reproduction.
