The CF-1010 is a 9-inch tonearm from the British company Connected-Fidelity, launched in late 2025 and offered on its own or in packages with the brand's TT Hub turntable.
Key specs that matter
A curved titanium tube is used for the arm with an integral headshell, and the headshell includes a resonance-absorbing element intended to reduce vibration while the cartridge tracks the groove. Pre-loaded single-point bearings are used throughout. The UK price is GBP 3,499.
Engineering and use context
Mounting follows the Linn pattern with three fixings plus a centre pillar hole, so the arm suits turntables prepared for that configuration. Internal wiring is very fine gauge to keep resistance low, and anti-skate is set with a hanging weight. The package includes installation hardware, a 2.0 m RCA tonearm cable, a digital tracking-force scale and a fibre brush, while alternative counterweights and headshell weight sets are available as options.
