Reed
2G
The Reed 2G is a pivoted tonearm from Lithuanian manufacturer Reed that uses an advanced cardanic bearing system — thrust rotation bearings on the vertical axis and thrust pivot bearings on the horizontal axis, related to the design used in the flagship Reed 3P — paired with a replaceable exotic-wood armwand (offered in wenge, macassar ebony, cocobolo, and light or dark teak). It is available in 9.5", 10.5", and 12" effective lengths and is aimed at analog enthusiasts seeking a distinctive, hand-finished high-end tonearm with tunable effective mass via interchangeable wood armwands.
