Saw this on Audiogon and decided to try one for my Jelco 750E (I believe they make them for other models/mfrs). Well built, very smooth and with the thumbscrew tightened down, rock solid. Makes very precise adjustments a snap and there is no backlash in the adjustment like other systems. The adjustment plunger appears to be from a micrometer. $200.

Generic micrometer barrel from China most likely. Assembly looks well made.

Hallo guys.
Yes, it is a generic but very well made micrometer, and the quality is good enough for VTA on the Fly adjustment. A brand micrometer would make the Easy VTA to expensive.
Pyramid, I´m very happy that you like our product.
Just to let everyone know that we will keep the "base" model but have now a Improved version were we added two linear bearings for total vertical and horizontal stability.

Nice! Will the "base" version fit a 370H?

Is it possible to order directly from the Purus audio website for delivery to the US? The US/Canada dealer seems to have a large price markup.

Antonio could be used with Linn Ekos?
Hello El Mago
If the main shaft is 18mm it will work fine. We have customers with Sony PUA 1600 using it as well.

Thank you António, what's the total weight?

Hello Felipe.
Total shipping weight is 250 gram, so I assume the Easy VTA is around 200 gram.

Would like to share an email from one costumer.
"Hello Antonio, just to let you know the Easyvta for Jelco tonearm arrived safely, I got it fitted on to my Michell Gyrodec no problem. It has made the somewhat troublesome issue of fine tuning VTA so much easier and works a dream. As you stated in your pre-amble the original collar and locking for the Jelco arms is`nt very secure, with the EasyVTA it solves this issue, a much stabler arm. The sonic audio improvements are wonderful, finding that sweet-spot of audio nirvana that all of us Audiophiles seek is so much easier. I have also noticed that some troublesome bass issues from the odd over produced re-issues I have is controlled due to the greater stability of the arm. Many thanks for a great product."

Hi António,
Do you have the upgraded version in black?
Do you know if it works with the Jelco TK-850? (cross-posted)

Nice piece. I think mines from a different manufacturer.

I'm pretty sure that they are all made by Easy VTA.
