A similar motion occurs in <strong>Clearaudio\u2019s<\/strong> tangential tonearms, but the arm moves tangentially, with the stylus propelling the tonearm along a linear bearing which comprises a carriage running on precision rollers along a meticulously polished glass rail.<\/p>\n<p>The cartridge therefore remains parallel to the record groove, following the same path as the cutting head did when making the record, thus eliminating any lateral tracking error. And since the record groove, stylus, cantilever and tonearm are perfectly aligned, no side forces are generated and so anti-skating compensation is no longer required.<\/p>\n<p>Tracking force and azimuth are easily and finely adjustable so that the cartridge and stylus are always in the perfect position to read the musical information in the record groove.<\/p>\n<h4>The affordable solution<\/h4>\n<p>With the <strong>TT5<\/strong>, <strong>Clearaudio<\/strong> offers vinyl fans a more affordable entry point into tangential tonearm technology. The <strong>TT5\u2019s<\/strong> surprising and excellent value for money is down to eschewing one or two of the features of its \u2018big brothers\u2019, the <strong>TT2<\/strong> and <strong>TT3<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the <strong>TT5<\/strong> adopts a new, fully rigid design. However, for those who still want the convenience the bigger arms\u2019 ability to swing out of the way when loading records, <strong>Clearaudio<\/strong>have created the optional <strong>TT5<\/strong> swing base which, as it\u2019s name suggests, allows the entire arm assembly to be swung out of the way when changing records.<\/p>\n<p>Review magazine \u201cAudio\u201d included the <strong>TT5<\/strong> in its analogue highlights of 2015. We are confident that this will still be the case for many years to come.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30368\" src=\"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Clearaudio-TT5-Tonearm-desc.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1290\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Clearaudio-TT5-Tonearm-desc.jpg 1290w, https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Clearaudio-TT5-Tonearm-desc-430x150.jpg 430w, https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Clearaudio-TT5-Tonearm-desc-150x52.jpg 150w, https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Clearaudio-TT5-Tonearm-desc-700x244.jpg 700w, https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Clearaudio-TT5-Tonearm-desc-400x140.jpg 400w, https:\/\/hifimarket.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Clearaudio-TT5-Tonearm-desc-768x268.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1290px) 100vw, 1290px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The <strong>Clearaudio TT5<\/strong> is capable of reproducing even the smallest and finest micro-details with complete dynamics and enormous calm at the same time.
