Tonearms — Thuono Thuono tonearm 9.5"

The Thuono tonearm 9.5" is a unipivot tonearm from Thuono, sitting at the more conventional end of the brand's tonearm range with a 9.5-inch effective length. The Thuono tonearm 9.5" brings considered unipivot design philosophy to this widely compatible geometry.

Key specs that matter

The unipivot bearing design uses a single-point pivot for low-friction, free-moving tracking. Offset angle is 22 degrees, with overhang at 17.24mm. Weight is 950g, close to the 10-inch model's figure.

Sound and use context

Expect the free, responsive tracking character unipivot bearing designs are broadly known for, at this conventional 9.5-inch effective length suiting a broader range of turntables than Thuono's longer 10-inch and 12-inch models can accommodate.

Pairing

The conventional 9.5-inch effective length suits a wide range of standard turntables without requiring specialised mounting.

Alternatives

Thuono's own 10-inch and 12-inch tonearm variants offer alternatives at longer effective lengths within the same broader catalogue, worth comparing directly for buyers whose turntable can accommodate a longer geometry.
