Dynavector DV 507 MKII Tonearm
The new MKII version of the Dynavector DV 507 tonearm has made its long-awaited debut, building on the strengths of the original DV 507 tonearm which has enjoyed the highest reputation among audiophiles world-wide since its appearance in 1984.
As it is a bi-axis inertia controlled tonearm the DV 507 tonearm, no matter the type of cartridge can trace the music signal grooves cut in the recording with extreme accuracy. The DV 507 tonearm also provides superb trackability on warped recordings. Resolution and musical detailing are quite remarkable.

Special Features of DV 507 MK2 Tonearm
High precision all stainless steel bearings
The use of precision stainless steel bearings give superb dynamic sensitivity and a stabilised tracking performance without any deterioration through ageing.
Non-contact electro magnetic damper
The use of new type damper with a powerful Neodymium magnet gives better damping and ensures that any adverse effects on tracking performance are minimised.
Large arm lift
A larger arm lift gives a stable lift action which maintains its performance over long periods enabling cartridges to be raised and lowered without stress.
Headshell plug in connector
The use of a new type of plug-in connector ensures that good contact is maintained with the Rhodium coated headshell contact pin during long-term use.
New style headshell and lead wires
The new style headshell is suitable for use with a wide variety of cartridges. It is machined from aluminium alloy and has an EIA standard connector. This allows the cartridge to be rigidly mounted and the azimuth adjustment. pure 6N wire is used in lead wires for the headshell and internal wires of the arm.
High-quality arm cable
A machined aluminium connector is used. The 5 PIN connector conforms to the DIN standard. Double balanced type shield wire and 4NOFC/6N hybrid construction arm cable.
Advantages of Bi-Axis Inertia Controlled Dynamic Balance Type Tonearm
A tone arm is required to operate in two important ways so as to ensure that the cartridge can reproduce faithfully the signal from the record groove. First, there is the need to support the cartridge so that the transfer of the cantilever motion accurately mirrors the audio signal.
Secondly, it must maintain an excellent tracking ability for warped records since few records are perfectly flat. These requirements can conflict with each other. However, the bi-axis tonearm provides an effective solution to the problem.
Main Features of DV 507 MkII tonearm
Electro Magnetic Damping System for accurate tracking
Arm Lift provided
Easy Height Adjustment
Dynamic Balance Tracking Force Adjuster
Dynamic Damper installed in sub arm
To make the DV 507 MkII tonearm compatible with a wide variety of turntables, the overall length and height of the arm have both been reduced compared to the earlier versions. The DV 505 and DV 501 tonearms have enjoyed an excellent reputation in the European audio market since being awarded the Design and Engineering Award at C.E.S. Chicago in 1977,1982 and 1985.
The DV 507 MkII tonearm has important sonic improvements as well as being easier to install and use. It includes all of the technology of our tonearm design developed since the DV 505 and 501.
