    Default FS: Nasotec Swing headshell for Ortofon SPU

    This ingenious device enables all the benefits of a parallel tracker without the hassles (pumps etc).

    This is the SPU version which gives correct tracking weight once the SPU cartridge has been transplanted. These are £295 new which is what I paid, looking for £120 including RMSD.

    Really worth a look if you have an SPU in an older headshell, it actually sounds better than the standard earlier plastic SPU shell in my opinion as it's quite resonant ... it’s the same weight and stylus positioning, so minimal re-setting required.

    I once tried it out on an friend's arm that we knew was a bit out for SPU, and the headshell corrected for it impeccably getting rid of the tracking error that was previously Many arms (SME for example) don't have the correct geometry for SPU if used with standard headshells. This corrects for that sufficiently without needing to move the arm to a different location.

    Video here for the 10g non SPU version but the principle is the same:

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
