4Point 9
4Point 9 is shorter version of 4Point tonearm. Due its 9 inch lenght and lack of VTA tower makes this tonearm lighter and smaller thus capable of fitting on most suspended turntables.
All 4P9 has sapphire/ruby cup bearings fitted since its introduction and all 4P11 and 4P14 since July 1st 2018.
