I suspect that the graphics guy did that to balance the page because the composition looks better with the cartridge head flipped because the lift isn't wrong, the whole picture is reversed because the head is backward which wouldn't work unless you mount that arm on the left. Maybe that's it, for $16,000 you get two arms, one right and one left.

As when the Graphic designers compose an ad they tend to focus on the objects shape, scale and hierarchy to compliment each other which will enable them to balance the composition.

Well phrased! May I borrow your words when speaking to clients? I don't do design, but sell/manage it. (Didn't do the ad in question. Bet it wasn't cheap! Or maybe discounted if the error was eventually caught!)
Cheers!

You can certainly use it. But keep in mind that Graphics designers are art-centric with no technical inclination when it comes to mechanical stuff such as tonearm. They treat all object in the ads as an art to be presented to the public to evoke imagination and conversations.
And judging by the reactions here it looks like the ad did just that...

in Australia?
Agreed the layout does look better that way.
Cheers!
