VPI JMW 12 3D braccio

12-inch unipivot tonearm with a 3D-printed wand

The JMW 12 3D is the long unipivot arm of the JMW series: a straight 12-inch wand, an integrated headshell and VPI woven copper for the internal wiring. Unlike the JMW 12 3D Reference, it does not carry Nordost Reference wiring.

The wand is 3D printed, a job that takes 24 hours per arm, in a plastic and resin compound described as ultralight and indestructible. It is sold as a wand only and mounts on the JMW-VTA base. The drop counterweight, the azimuth (through side weights) and the VTA are adjustable.
