Once the stylus hits it, not only is the album you were enjoying over, but if left running\u00a0you can actually reduce the lifespan of your precious cartridge as the stylus wears down. Sadly no matter how careful you are, the tonearm doesn&#8217;t always get lifted off once the record is over (ever fall asleep listening to your turntable?. . .) but now you needn&#8217;t be ever vigilant, with the help of your Little Fwend from Oslo.<\/p>\n<p>Sitting on your turntable&#8217;s plinth between the platter and tonearm, the Little Fwend waits to intercept and gently lift the cartridge away from the record once the last track has played. Available in\u00a0two versions, High (49 &#8211; 82mm) and Low (32 &#8211; 49mm), which are both user adjustable, the Fwend will buddy up with most decks, and lift any cartridge with a VTF of less than 5g. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.littlefwend.com\/list-of-compatible-turntables-for-little-fwend\/\">The list of compatible turntables can be found here<\/a>, and includes\u00a0the SME 20\/12 and 30\/12, the VPI Prime, HR-X and Scout, and the Rega P1, P3, RP6 and RP10, along with many others.\u00a0Thanks to the mounting platform, you can even use it with your next turntable when\u00a0you decide to upgrade.<\/p>\n<p>Priced at \u00a3180, this\u00a0won&#8217;t improve the sound of your system, but it will look after\u00a0you and your record collection. What more can you ask of your Little Fwend?<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to purchase one for yourself, <a href=\"https:\/\/loudclearedinburgh.vendecommerce.com\/products\/little-fwend-automatic-tonearm-lifter\">please check\u00a0out our brand new online store by clicking here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Don&#8217;t let runoff grooves run off with your groove, read on to find out what this lovely lump of fwendship can do for you and your records&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":9216,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9145","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hi-fi"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
