PU7 GTS TONEARM
EXCEPTIONAL ENGINEERING.
EXCEPTIONAL VALUE.
For over a decade, the Audio Origami PU7 has set the benchmark for performance and value, trusted by discerning analogue listeners on everything from classic decks to modern high-end turntables.
Hand-built with a focus on precision and musicality, every Audio Origami tonearm is crafted to bring records to life.
In 2026, the PU7 takes a bold leap forward. The new PU7 GTS not only builds on the proven PU7 platform but also harnesses advanced technologies from our flagship PU8 Reference tonearm, ensuring unmatched performance.
The PU7 GTS features a constrained-layer armtube with our latest Meta-Material Arm Damping System (M.M.A.D.S.), mounted in a more robust bearing assembly. A carbon-fibre inner tube is suspended within a precision-machined metal outer tube, with the void filled by lightweight damping resin.
This structure dissipates airborne, structural, and groove-borne vibration, converting it to heat and shielding the cartridge and internal wiring from both resonant and electrical interference.
The result is lower noise and higher-fidelity signal retrieval.
The PU7 GTS is fitted with the Audio Origami Pro-Headshell, which now features a precision all-Delrin Cartridge Enhancer to minimise resonance feedback to the cartridge and long cartridge thumbscrews to simplify cartridge alignment.
Internal wiring is Cardas as standard with an optional upgrade to Cardas Clear. Connections are Zavfino throughout with a 5-pin DIN allowing you to use the tonearm cable of your choice.
Available with Rega or Linn mounts and in 9" to 13" lengths, the PU7 GTS suits nearly any turntable.
The new Audio Origami PU7 GTS is designed, precision-machined, and hand-built in Scotland to deliver uncompromised, accurate playback and exceptional value.
Constrained Layer Composite Armtube
The new GTS armtube combines an aluminium or titanium outer tube with a suspended carbon-fibre inner tube, bonded with specialised damping material. This multi-material structure delivers exceptional stiffness and vibration control, making the armtube far more inert and stable than typical single-material armtube designs.
Meta Material Armtube
Damping System V2
M.M.A.D.S. suspends the internal wiring within a controlled, low-resonance structure, shielding the signal from resonance and RF interference. This results in a cleaner, purer signal path that preserves more of the music’s subtle detail and natural tone.
Pro-Headshell with
Cartridge Enhancer V2
The new Pro-Headshell offers improved ergonomics and a sleeker, more rigid profile, giving cartridges a more stable and precise platform. Paired with our solid Delrin Cartridge Enhancer, it further suppresses micro-vibrations, delivering a cleaner, more controlled sound.
