Yesterday I removed and packed all tonearms for my turntable and thoughts about tonearms flew in my head.

It is know my admiration of SME 3012 tonearms, which I consider is good enough do not look for anything better arm. A few year back SME made the newer version:

I have the 12” of M2 and I am not a huge fun of it. However, what I discovered was that SME has newer arms.

One of them Model M2-12R, which is the M2 arm in 3012 configuration and without the idiotic M2 bayonet:

Another is Series V-12. The V-12 is the M2 arm in Series V configuration.

I never was a big fun of Series 3, 4, 5 but who know what the V-12 does.

All of the arms are 12” and are currently in production. Will then be stand up to the sound of 3012 is hard to say…
