The Zephyr builds on the performance of the Silver MK3a by virtue of a range of features:
Superior Yoke design - encompassing higher grade material and high precision tolerancing of parts, finished in chrome.
Internal cable and external cable is fully balanced and upgraded to a more costly wire than used in Silver MK3a arm.
Bearing design - Gimballed arm using specially treated bearings.
Headshell consists of aircraft grade aluminium. This is specially decaoupled from the armtube to ensure good isolation from resonant feedback through the tube.
The Threaded base is upgraded from the Silver with a more sophisticated internal design.
Counterweight is specially decoupled and includes a clamping grub screw with hardened ball.
Superior rear stub material.
