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 which has enjoyed the highest reputation among audiophiles world-wide since its appearance in 1984.

  • Electro Magnetic Damping System for accurate tracking
  • Arm Lift provided
  • Easy Height Adjustment
  • Dynamic Balance Tracking Force Adjuster
  • Dynamic Damper installed in sub arm

As it is a bi-axis inertia controlled tonearm the DV 507, no matter the type of cartridge can trace the music signal grooves cut in the recording with extreme accuracy. The DV 507 also provides superb trackability on warped recordings. Resolution and musical detailing are quite remarkable.

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.

To make the DV 507 MKII 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 DV505 and DV501 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 DV507MKII 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 DV505 and 501.

 

Who is Dynavector?

Dynavector is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of high performance moving coil cartridges and has been at the top of its game for over four decades. Using their patented magnetic flux damping and softened magnetism mechanisms, Dynavector’s range of cartridges are certainly innovative. Hearing a standard moving magnet cartridge and Dynavector’s moving coil cartridges you’ll be blown away by the difference in sound.

From their entry-level, MC 10X5 cartridge to the top of the range DRT XV-1t, Dynavector cartridges can help take your listening experience to the next level. Their high output models are designed to work with MM inputs, perfect for those just starting their upgrade journey in the world of vinyl.

Founded in the mid-1970s by Dr Tominari in Tokyo, Dynavector is committed to delivering the best quality sound from vinyl. As a former physics professor at Tokyo University, Dr Tominari had a lifelong interest in music and his scientific background helped him to design, develop and produce truly innovative products. This has continued to this day and helped Dynavector become synonymous with great-sounding vinyl.
