SECOND HAND PU2 SILVER

Close Up of Bearing & Mod


This is a unique chance to purchase a very special version of this product.

The PU 2 tone arm is a highly desirable tone arm for any turntable sprung chassis or solid alike.

The original pu2 had the external cable mounted under the arm board in a fixed fashion, this made it impossible to remove the arm from turntable to turntable. This has now been addressed and my new mod makes the arm much more user friendly, similar to the PU 3 design but with a cardas 5 pin plug... so the cable is removable!!!!

I'm sure Scott Strachan would approve.

Unlike many syrinx arms being sold on ebay that spring up from time to time, this arm, it has perfect bearings with better than factory bearings specs and much better internal wiring... it's a testament to my work at "Audio origami"

The horizontal bearings can now swing well over 20 times in a static swing test. The vertical are well within the factory 10-20 swings

FEATURES:

With the new linn type mounting base plate I have developed it can fit any linn type mounting hole or even a syrinx pu3 mounting hole. It also boasts a standard fitting 5 pin cardas connector at the base of the arm, all done by "Audio Origami"

BRAND New cardas 33 ga internal OFC copper litz
BRAND New cardas PPCe gold cartridge tags and coloured heat shrink x 4
BRAND New cardas 5 pin din connector in base of arm
BRAND New highest quality horizontal bearings x2
BRAND New linn type mounting base with standard 3 or 6 hole -5mm allan bolt fixing, 3 short and 3 long bolts supplied.
A spare black finger lift is supplied.
A spare slightly heavier bios weight is supplied for matching any cartridge.

The new modified base also allows the arm to be raised about 20 mm higher than standard, if needed to fit thicker platter turntables.

HISTORY:

I have had very many syrinx arms in my collection (and for repair)over the years this arm I've had for a long time and we have had a lot of fun together. It used to be confined to a linn board, but now its liberated!!!

I have completely stripped and rebuilt the unit with some new parts and upgraded the earthing to the latest version that the factory did, with the earth wire into the arm tube rear.

When I got it, it was missing the finger lift, arm cue and arm rest. I have remade these parts to match the original bits.

The finish on the bearing housing is good but has been marked with the mass ring 3 mounting screws at some time in the past, but this causes no problem with the sound, and the mass ring is not recommended and not supplied with this arm.

The finish on the black arm tube is not the best I have seen, but would be described as reasonable and well used.

The original horizontal bearings like ALL pu2s was getting tight, so I replaced them, as I do in top quality services on these units.

The original wire was the silk wound copper wire, the loam had no 5th wire earth wire and had intermittent humming and breaking earth connection, before I replaced it with the god like cardas 33ga, and separate earth.

The head shell is original and 2 new stainless steel screws are supplied.

2 AO finger lifts are supplied a black and a polished aluminium finish.

2 AO bios weights are supplied a standard weight and a heavy.

A Cardas gold right angle external with a super ofc balanced soft cable with gold phonos is supplied

I do a lot of repairs to syrinx arms. I have remade a few pu3s with some interesting mods and even some pu7 arms.
