  • Due to customer demand, we have now made the Merlin available with either an Effective Mass of 16 grams (suitable for the vast majority of cartridges) or 22 grams suitable for cartridges like the highly rated Denon 103 to Koetsu or the like cartridges.
  • For those that do not know TemaadAudio arms, with our arms there is no cartridge adjustment at the head-shell. As we believe that slotting the arm or carrier only weakens the very spot that should have MINIMUM flex, therefore not allowing your cartridge to maximize it's music retrieval. With our Titanium arm we have introduced an off-set cam collar at the arm mounting plate. Rotating the shaft collar allows the user 20 mm of cartridge overhang adjustment.

  • There are 2 arm options available :
  • The Merlin Reference arm is fitted with Rhodium cartridge clips & RCA outs & we have chosen to use what we consider to be the best internal wire available in the famous Van Den Hull MC 150M Silver wire (people  even rewire their SME V with this wire!!). It also sports our newly developed ceramic, magnetic pivot cup, ensuring the absolute minimum friction & wear. Being magnetized also the cup also firmly holds the pivot point, therefore reducing "pivot point chatter" which has previously been the downside of many uni-pivots. This greatly increases spacial information & bass slam retrieval. The magnetic baring is standard on the Merlin VDH arm & an optional extra on the Silver arm & the rest of the range.
  • The Merlin Silver is our second & slightly cheaper arm, this is fitted with quality gold plated cartridge clips & RCA out's & our own proprietary sourced super flexible silver wire. You will achieve 90% of the Ref arms performance when using this option. With this arm the pivot is supported by our titanium arm post, which is alsostandard on our Warlock range.
  • Which ever you choose we know you will be thrilled with the arm's performance & we know  our arm can match the performance of many arms that cost 3 to 5 times the price of our arms. Plus you have nothing to lose as you can try an arm for 30 days & if our arm is not for you, we will give you a full refund.
  • The Merlin arm'salso sports a 2 part swivel cam base that makes adjusting the overhang of a cartridge a breeze. Just turn the top cam to obtain your correct cartridge alignment.
  • We exclusively use a 12 inch format as it allows for a significant reductions in tracking error as the cartridge traverses the LP. None believers argue that this necessitates an increase in effective mass, yet our arm is only 16 grams. 
  • Why are our prices so reasonable? Quite simply, because we have NO middle men. Our products are 95% manufactured in-house. This gives enormous savings, which we simply pass on to you the customer. If our arms were sold though conventional outlets they would be 2 or 3 times more expensive.
  • Guarantee, All our arms come with a 10 years return to base guarantee.
  • Remember : Not sure the arm will suit your system?. Pay though PayPal and we offer a 30 day full refund if you are not delighted.

This is how we describe our latest arm : Naturalness with exceptional detail retrieval. The bass has full impact and deep with good leading edge transients and excellent decay. The treble is also very detailed but not forward, cymbals and brushes are the most natural of any we've heard . The sound-stage is deep and the images superbly separated front to back.

(Customers please note: Money back guarantee is only applicable if the product is returned in mint condition. return postage is the customer's responsibility)
