The
japanese ultra-high-tech offerings notwithstanding, Rabco's SL-8E
probably is the one and only well remembered Linear Tracking tonearm,
and mostly as installed on Harman/Kardon's ST-7
and ST-6 turntables.
It
is a pity linear trackers are either very finicky (then), dependent
upon unobtainable spare parts (for the japanese 1978/1984 units)
or of the ultra-buck kind (now) for it really is the only proper
way to accurately read an LP from outer to inner groove.

about Rabco at audiotools,
more about the SL-8E at audiotools
as well ; the SL-8 within a larger
scheme and absolutely everything about Rabco tonearms at soundfountain
(and more).
