IT-407 SS

The IT-407 SS stands as the ultimate expression of the Ikeda tonearm lineage, meticulously crafted to provide a neutral and highly stable platform for the world’s finest cartridges. As the top-tier 12-inch model, it builds upon the legendary IT-407 architecture by introducing a more advanced material composition and refined internal signal path, ensuring that every nuance of the groove is captured with surgical precision. The design of the SS model is focused on the mastery of resonance. While the exterior is finished in polished stainless steel for exceptional rigidity, the internal structure combines aluminium and brass to effectively damp unwanted vibrations before they reach the signal path. This meticulous approach to construction results in a tonearm that feels both substantial and effortlessly precise in operation. Sonically, the IT-407 SS is defined by its authoritative low-frequency stability and exceptional resolution. By utilising hybrid 6N and 4N copper wiring and rhodium-plated contact points, the arm achieves a level of transparency that allows the character of the cartridge and record to emerge without coloration. It is a commanding instrument for the audiophile who demands absolute composure and spatial accuracy from their analog system.
