Audiocraft AC300 Tonearm Here we have a new old stock Audio Craft AC300 tonearm! an interesting design silicon damped unipivot! This is vintage new stock, I am not sure on the silicon fluid in the little bottle as its all sealed up unused, its a pretty standard fluid though easily obtained if needed. You dont use the silicon unless you need the additional damping, its dependent on cartridge used, makes the arm quite versatile with what cartridges it will handle.Arm is 222mm so Rega geometry, will fit many tables. No external cable, but if you need one I can sort one out, just message me to dis
This A$800 ask for a new-old-stock Audiocraft AC300 tonearm is ambitious compared to the typical used market, where these arms commonly sell between A$450 and A$650. While a used AC300 in Japan has been found under A$450 and ended listings in excellent condition hovered around A$475, this listing’s “new” (AUD) condition justifies a premium, though it still sits near the top of the realistic range for buyers seeking a bargain.
The AC300 remains well-regarded for its oil-damped uni-pivot design, which allows precise damping adjustment to accommodate cartridges from low to high compliance. Its interchangeable armwands and long-standing reputation among vinyl enthusiasts make it a versatile upgrade for mid-tier turntables. Since this is new-old-stock vintage, the upside is immediate reliability without age-related wear, making it a solid buy for those who value original condition and don’t need to chase the lowest price.

Audiocraft is an obscure name in the hi-fi landscape, with multiple entities sharing it but none established as a dedicated manufacturer of consumer audio hardware like amplifiers, speakers, or turntables. The most prominent match is Audio Craft, a Cleveland, Ohio-based company founded in 1954, specializing in residential and light commercial audio/video installation rather than branded hi-fi gear. Without a notable founder highlighted and no verifiable heritage in pure hi-fi design, it lacks the boutique pedigree of brands like Naim or Linn.
Its product focus centers on services, not standalone components: custom home theaters, whole-home audio systems, media rooms, smart lighting, surveillance, and automation using partnerships with marques like Sony, Sonos, Crestron, Bose, and Yamaha. Acquired by iVideo Technologies, it emphasizes integration over individual DACs, headphones, cables, or vinyl playback gear, positioning it as a systems integrator for modern smart homes rather than a source of audiophile separates.
In the market, Audio Craft holds a mid-tier service reputation for reliable, customer-focused installs across the Midwest, not high-end hi-fi or vintage collector status. Other "Audiocraft" references—a 2023 Singapore passion project, a UK firm from 2000, an Australian podcast producer, or Meta's AI audio tool—do not align with traditional hi-fi manufacturing, underscoring the brand's ambiguity for discerning buyers seeking verifiable gear.
