Origin Live Structural Upgrade
Origin Live Slotted Arm Tube Upgrade
  • Structural Upgrade - The work involves removing the existing rear end counterweight stub
    (which is normally just screwed into the end of the Rega arm - a sonic disaster), and replacing it
    with a new stub, torqued onto the arm by a thin high tensile bolt. A far more significant upgrade than
    rewiring the tonearm.
  • Slotted Arm Tube - This upgrade involves removing the powder coat from the arm tube which
    enables faster energy transmission and prevents the arm being over damped. A slot is then
    machined in the underside of the arm to reduce ringing effects. Lastly the arm tube is highly polished
    giving it a very high grade appearance. Please note that Origin Live internal rewiring must be already
    included in your arm or ordered for this upgrade to be possible.
  • Internal Rewire - High grade Litz wire is used inside the arm tube. The Litz is to Origin Live’s
    specification and design. An internal dedicated earth lead is attached at the head shell and runs
    through to your amplifier). The old cartridge tags are replaced with gold plated, copper beryllium
    versions. The headshell wires are upgraded with robust, silver plated, PTFE insulated wire.
  • External Rewire - A special low resistance cable, optimized for low level signals, replaces the
    existing cable
  • High Grade aluminum phono plugs - Standard brass phono plugs are replaced with high
    conductivity aluminum ones – Over twice as conductive as brass.
