Alphason HR-200S Reference Tonearm
The Alphason HR-200S Reference Tonearm is the latest evolution of the highly regarded HR series, building on the legacy of the HR-100S. Designed to push performance further, it offers exceptional clarity, neutrality, and precision for high-end analogue systems.
Each HR-200S is meticulously hand assembled, featuring a one-piece titanium composite headshell and arm tube, along with bespoke zero-clearance bearings. This construction provides a rigid, stable platform that minimises unwanted vibration and preserves signal integrity.
The tonearm is a critical component in any analogue system, and the HR-200S is engineered to maximise cartridge performance, delivering improved clarity, tonal balance, and sound staging.
Key Features:
• One-piece titanium composite headshell and arm tube
• Internal damping for vibration control
• Bespoke ceramic bearings with zero clearance
• Single continuous internal wiring
• Alphason Pin-Jack connection system
• Hand assembled construction
• Designed for high-performance cartridges
• Lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects
• Free home trial available
Precision Engineering:
The integrated headshell and arm tube are designed to optimise frequency response and maintain tonal neutrality. The titanium and composite construction increases rigidity and resists vibrational energy, ensuring accurate tracking and signal transfer.
Custom-designed ceramic bearings with zero clearance reduce friction and allow higher pre-load, improving stability and clarity. The result is precise tracking and consistent performance across the record surface.
Signal Integrity:
A single continuous internal wire runs from the cartridge to the external connector, minimising capacitance and inductance. The Alphason Pin-Jack system ensures consistent contact force and reliable signal transmission, preserving the full detail of the audio signal.
Technical Highlights:
• High rigidity, low resonance construction
• Low friction bearing system for precise tracking
• Optimised frequency response and tonal balance
• High signal integrity from cartridge to preamplifier
• Designed to reveal maximum detail and clarity
