Replacing Rega RB300 with Jelco SA-750D

[magiccarpetride]

I'm using modded Systemdek IIX with Rega RB300 tonearm (rewired). Been hearing from many sources that Jelco SA-750D is a better tonearm, especially because I'm using Denon DL-103. My question: which length Jelco should I order for the replacement?

Rega RB300 - Mounting distance platter center*to arm hole center 222mm which makes the SA-750D the closest. Distance of the tonearm pivot to spindle is 214mm.
The SA-750D has an Effective length (from the tonearm pivot to stylus point) of 229mm. If you want a longer one, you need to drop the "D" and go for the "E" or "L".

I've gone from RB300 to 750D and I would heartily recommend it. It is an incredibly versatile arm.

I think you're obliged to use a 9" arm on a Systemdek, since there isn't room for a longer arm.

Thanks, I needed a confirmation for that (wasn't sure if there's even a possibility for longer arms).

Yes, I'm definitely gonna do it, just needed to confirm the correct length.
