The Kuzma SAFIR 9 features a rigid sapphire conical tube, enhancing cartridge performance. Its unique 4-point sapphire cup bearings ensure precise, low-friction movement of the headshell. The sapphire tube is mounted in a solid aluminum and brass block, reducing vibrations. The counterweight with a lock mechanism balances the tonearm, while azimuth and VTA adjustments can be made precisely with an Allen key. The tonearm is mounted via the Kuzma arm base, with VTA adjustments controlled by a screw for precise height changes. Superior silver alloy wires run continuously from the cartridge pins through a 1.5 m tonearm cable with silver RCA or XLR connectors.

The SAFIR perfectly matches the Kuzma STABI S, STABI R, REF 2, and Dohmann Turntables.

SAFIR 9 shows your cartridge's ultimate potential and will effectively reveal music hidden in the grooves, giving you a new record collection!

From Edward: Audio-Ultra was one of two recipients of the Safir upon its arrival in the United States. Upon setup, this arm immensely lowered the noise floor, bringing a more comprehensive range of clarity and life to our record collections. This has been proven by clients and audio industry representatives at many listening events. Low-compliance cartridges are better suited for this tonearm. I highly recommend purchasing this arm if you're into analog and can budget The Safir. The wait time is approximately six weeks.
