SAEC WE-308 Double Knife Edge Vintage HI-FI Audiophile Tonearm

The SAEC WE-308 is a renowned Japanese tonearm from the 1970s, celebrated for its innovative Double Knife-Edge bearing system. This design employs four precision-polished blades—two above and two below—to minimise friction and eliminate mechanical play, resulting in exceptional tracking accuracy and channel separation. The tonearm's ultra-precise bearings, finished to tolerances as fine as 0.02 mm by skilled artisans, contribute to its high sensitivity and stability. Key specifications include an effective length of 240 mm, an overhang of 5 mm, and a tracking force range of 0 to 2 grams. Its unique bearing design and meticulous craftsmanship have earned it a lasting reputation among audiophiles seeking a tonearm that delivers precise imaging and a rich, detailed soundstage.

Condition:

  • This is a used unit. 

  • Physically this unit is in good condition for its age. It shows some surface wear from use and age. This includes some light scuffs and some light signs of oxidisation. There is a bit more oxidisation on the mounting washer and bolt. There is nothing which detracts from the use or sound of this beautiful tonearm. Please see all photos.

  • This sale includes a SAEC cable loom. This also shows some general signs of age, but nothing major. Please see photos. 

  • This tone arm has been tested and is working very well!  

  • The SAEC WE-308 is definitely for people who are experienced with turntables and setting up tone arms. This is because this unit is delicate and require fine precision to set up. We will not be able to remotely help with set up or installation. So please ensure you are confident before purchase or have a technician who can install it for you.  (If you are able to visit our store in West Gosford, NSW we could help with set up)

Otter
Format: Board book
This little otter was for a baby shower. She was so cute. I listened to the music and it was so soothing. The movement of the chest was soothing also. I remember my son had one of these items, but as anything goes, the improvement was fantastic. I highly recommend this toy for any newborn.
