Description
Like all Moerch tonearms, the DP-6 is built around a system of interchangeable arm tubes of varying effective mass, from light to heavy. This allows the mass of the tonearm to be precisely matched to the compliance of the chosen cartridge: owners of multiple cartridges can keep each in its tube and switch between them without having to re-adjust the balance each time.
The azimuth is adjusted by shifting the counterweights, which maintains the geometric accuracy of the needle installation even after fine adjustments. Anti-skating is set by a clock spring with the ability to adjust simply during playback of the record - a rare flexibility for tonearms of this class.
Unlike the standard chrome version, the Gold version of the DP-6 is distinguished by a 24-carat gold-plated coating of metal elements - a solution that is chosen mainly for aesthetics and status, since the type of coating does not affect the sound. The standard configuration is designed for a 9-inch effective length (230 mm).
