Thanks for the correction.

Given how big a player they are in the market and how long they have been around, I think they deserve more attention in the press.

I would imagine the majority of owners of Sumiko (MMT and FT-Series) and AudioQuest (PT-Series) arms have no idea they were made by Jelco. I know we all know, but I consider us the minority.

Who else did/does Jelco build for ?

Dean.

From the website in the link,

"Jelco makes tonearms for many of the big name companies in analog audio, both current and past. They made the famous Sumiko MMT tonearm and we believe the Linn Ittock II tonearm as well. Here are some of the companies who have marketed Jelco tonearms under their own names: Koetsu, Sumiko, Audioquest, Linn, Oracle, Ortofon, Ariston, Roksan, Revolver, Mission, and Graham."

Here's a pic of the Koetsu Jelco.

  Seems Jelco, like Darlene Love, is 20 feet from stardom.
