I have a TA1000 sitting in a cupboard somewhere but I think the TA5000 is a very different beast. Sorry can't be of more help...

Hi there Pauljenkins,

I’ll have the TA-5000 9”-arm. It is a good and stable platform to any cartridge out there.
Very easy to mount and install.
At the moment I have the Ortofon MC Diamond on the 5000-arm… but not long ago I had the Nagaoka MP-300. Two very different carts, but both works/worked great and both sounds/sounded super nice. As I said, the TA-5000 arm works great what ever cartridge you put on… Hope that helps.

Btw: The pic shows the Miyajima Zero mono cartridge on my TA-5000 9” arm which worked very very well too.

All the best

I have tested the TA-5000 NEO at home. Its a fantastic tonearm in my opinion, and almost a steal at the price, very good value for money. I ended up with two TA-9000 NEO arms in the end of my testing of Acoustic Signature tonearms. Together with a friend we have tested them against SMEV, the newest IKEDA 9´inch arm among others.
