About the HR-100S
The Alphason HR-100S tonearm was developed over seven years with professional design and computer-aided structural and vibrational analysis to optimize rigidity, resonances, energy paths, and structural damping. It features an ultra-strong, one-piece titanium casting forming the arm tube and headshell, tool-grade steel for the gimbal-bearing housing, and ultra-tough ceramic bearings designed for zero clearance. The arm is noted for its neutral and tonally balanced performance, delivering detailed treble, excellent mid-range vocal rendition, firm and extended bass, and exceptional stereo imaging with precise positioning and depth. It has a dedicated following among audiophiles for its faithful resolution and definition without emphasis or grain, making it a benchmark for hi-fidelity tonearms.
