The end of the search.

Anthony Kershaw reviewed the Enterprise Mk4 on a Pure Fidelity turntable and reached a clear conclusion: for the serious vinyl listener, this arm is where the search ends. The Enterprise is the culmination of decades of Origin Live research into its dual-pivot design.

Twin tungsten carbide points rest by gravity in hardened steel cups, giving the freedom of a uni-pivot without its instability. The arm can be held upside down and nothing falls out of place.

01

Dual-pivot bearing.

Tungsten carbide points, self-centred by gravity in hardened steel cups, with very low friction.

02

Ceramic horizontal bearings.

Smooth, low-friction tracking.

03

Chrome nitride mirror yoke.

A true mirror finish under a chrome nitride coating, as durable as it is beautiful.

04

Calibrated VTA dial.

A large dial above the armboard gives repeatable control of vertical tracking angle.

05

Cryogenic Silver Hybrid wire.

Silver and copper Litz conductors, cryogenically treated, from headshell to rhodium-plated RCA.

06

Falling-weight side bias.

Lower friction and resonance, and greater stability, than spring designs.

"...adding the Enterprise Mk4 would bring you to the end of your vinyl journey."
