Best vintage or modern tonearms for Denon DP 80

My DP80 is mounted in a slate slab, weighs about 75 lbs. For feet, I use three small cans of Mandarin orange slices in water, available at your local supermarket for about $6, total. To the bottom of each can, I affixed a Black Diamond Racing tiptoe, using double-sided tape. I had them lying around, could use any tiptoe. Odd as it may seem, the canned fruit works great to soak up energy.

I have no direct experience with Victor or Sony PUA tonearms, but the consensus is that both are excellent, probably similar since the designs are similar in many ways. I just bought a Victor QL10 turntable which will come to me with a 7045 tonearm, so I am about to find out how a Victor tonearm can sound.

Dear Lleall: I own the DP-80 and 75 that I use along other TTs and I use it in " naked fashion "/no-plinth.

As with any other TT any tonearm works great with if the cartridge is well matched to the tonearm. So, IMHO you don't have to worried about your TT but that your tonearm(s) choice be a good match for your cartridges.

Dynavector tonearms are good designs but not the best out there, I don't use it any more because I find out better tonearms.

If we look for vintage ones these ones ( I own all. ) could fulfil your cartridge needs, very good tonearms:

Sony PUA-237 , JVC UA-7045, Grace G-840FB, Lustre GST-801 or Audio Technica 1503 MK3 ( this is current model. ).

Of course that Denon ones are a good choice too.

Regards and enjoy the music,

Thanks, Raoul
I built up a small collection of the MM carts after reading the great thread here...

I have a chance to buy either a Sony PUA 1500L or the Sony PUA 7, any thoughts on which is better? The Sony PUA 7 comes pretty complete with cable too.
I already have the JVC/Victor 7045 which came with original cable. Would another Japanese tonearm from Sony be any different? Or should I spend the money on buying more headshells?

I haven't given any thought on buying a different tonearm cable as the one I have is a right angle DIN for my SME IV and wont fit the Victor.

Thanks in advance, everyone.

I can't believe I am responding here, but unless you want to use two tonearms, why bother with a second tonearm that is at best going to be about as good as the one you have? (Which isn't bad at all.)

Lewm, I do have room for 2 tonearms on the plinth.

One is already filled by the Victor and the other is available for one not yet determined.
