RMAF 2016

In the Musical Surroundings room at RMAF 2016, Michael Fremer learned about a significant upgrade to AMG's tone arm, saw and heard the new top of the line DS Audio Master 1 optical cartridge and electronics as well as a new Clearaudio turntable upgrade.

The AMG arm is now far easier to set up and adjust—all without tools. The DS Audio cartridge now uses a wire suspension similar to what's used in standard magnetic cartridges, which makes it more stable and compatible with more tone arms. Clearaudio has upgraded one of its more popular turntables.
