Reed 2G 9.5 Inch Tonearm

A cardanic bearing tonearm with replaceable arm wand.

The Reed 2G merges the best features of Reed 2A and Reed 3Q tonearms and adds a few new ones. It is very easily adjusted and can be mounted to virtually any turntable with or without an adapter.

As with Reed’s other tonearms, the 2G features 0.2 mm precision VTA adjustment and the tonearm’s height can be adjusted from 28 mm to 48 mm.

The Reed 2G has a cardanic bearing system. The vertical axis has thrust rotation bearings, and the horizontal axis is based on thrust pivot bearings, similar to the Reed 3P. This bearing construction eliminates wobbling, which has a great impact on the quality of the sound.

All Reed 2G tonearms have a unique azimuth adjustment system, which allows for replaceable arm wands using a high-quality LEMO connector. This allows you to change tonearm effective length and effective mass with no hassle. 

In addition, the Reed 2G has magnetic antiskate, and a replaceable headshell. It can be wired with Finewire C37 cable or have a 5-pin DIN connector for a custom cabling solution.
