Dynavector DV-505 Tonearm – Rare, Complete with head shell & 3 Counterweights!

For all serious enquires, please reach out!

Offered here is a Dynavector DV-505, one of the most sought-after tonearms ever made. Renowned for its innovative dual-pivot design, this arm delivers remarkable stability, precise tracking, and exceptional musicality. Built to the highest standard in Japan, the DV-505 has long been considered a true reference-class tonearm.

This unit is with its three original counterweights + headshell, allowing it to be perfectly matched with virtually any cartridge, from lightweight high-compliance MM designs to heavier low-compliance moving coils. This flexibility makes it a superb choice for audiophiles who enjoy experimenting with different cartridges or want to get the very best out of their collection.

The arm is in excellent condition for its age, with all adjustments functioning smoothly and accurately. It has been carefully looked after and presents beautifully.

A rare opportunity to secure one of the finest tonearms ever produced, especially complete with all counterweights — something that’s becoming increasingly difficult to find.
