Why Choose Supatrac

Supatrac is a British tonearm manufacturer founded by designer Richard Braine, focused on developing highly innovative tonearm designs that prioritise low friction, cartridge stability, and natural musical flow. Rather than following traditional gimbal or unipivot approaches, Supatrac developed a unique side-pivot geometry designed to combine the openness and freedom of a unipivot arm with the stability and control of more conventional bearing systems.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, Supatrac tonearms stand out for their highly spacious, fluid, and expressive presentation. There is an ease and naturalness to the sound that allows records to feel remarkably open and unconstrained, particularly when partnered with high-quality moving coil cartridges and carefully matched analogue systems.

Signature Design and Sound

Manufactured in the United Kingdom, Supatrac tonearms are built around the company’s distinctive pivot system designed to minimise unwanted friction and lateral forces acting on the cartridge during playback. This contributes to excellent tracking behaviour, strong dynamic expression, and impressive spatial realism.

The Supatrac range includes the Blackbird and Nighthawk tonearms, each available in 9-inch, 10.5-inch, and 12-inch configurations. Moving to a longer tonearm reduces tracking error across the record surface, helping improve tonal consistency and reduce distortion, particularly toward the inner grooves. The longer 10.5-inch and 12-inch arms can also deliver a more relaxed, spacious, and effortless presentation when properly implemented.

Sonically, Supatrac tonearms are known for their openness, speed, and highly natural musical presentation. The sound feels fluid, articulate, and dynamically free while maintaining excellent image stability and low-level detail retrieval.

Supatrac Product Range

The Supatrac range includes the Blackbird and Nighthawk tonearms in multiple lengths to suit a variety of turntables and cartridge combinations. Both models reflect the company’s focus on low-friction movement, innovative engineering, and highly engaging analogue performance.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, Geoff and his experienced analogue setup team provide tonearm installation, cartridge mounting, alignment, and analogue system optimisation to ensure Supatrac tonearms perform at their full capability within each customer’s vinyl playback system.
