View Full Version : NA Paragon Arm
Folks
I have the late and great Mr Fletcher's Paragon arm on a NA Mentor turntable, has anybody got any details re setup and cartridge matching?
The chap I got it from used a Kontrapunkt B, I'm going to give a Denon DL103 a whirl, any advice welcome

Is this the parallel tracker ? If it is, there were only a handful made and they were a bit 'problematical'. Tom would never let me have one !!!

It is indeed, but with a modification done by Tom and one of his friends, I bought it of his friend, who sold it to buy one of Tom's new turntables.

Well, as I said, I've not had hands on but I doubt it's difficult to set up - Tom's designs have always been straightforward.
I do recall that he had problems with the arm sticking as it traversed the record and that was why it never went into production. He promised me one on several occasions but it never happened.
