This deck is an evolution of SME’s original flagship Model 30, first made in the early ’90s; one that follows the same engineering principles but takes advantage of modern production techniques and materials where desirable.
Nowhere is this more apparent than in the SME 5A tonearm. This is an update of a long-running favourite that swaps the original’s tapered magnesium arm tube with one that is machined from a block of high-tech polymer resin. In cross-section it looks like a curved-sided triangle, a shape SME has chosen in order to improve rigidity. The move to a well-damped material such as this resin is a bid to reduce armtube resonances to a minimum.
