morch tonearm question.......

check with the importer and/or your dealer. in most instances, the answer is NONE. the dp-6 competes well with other high-end arms imho, but just isn't that well known or appreciated in this country (if you're in the u.s.). not enough money spent in advertising perhaps....upgrading the tonearm lead over the stock one is recommended. what table and cartridge are you using?

You may want to contact AudioGon member Dobjim. He is using a Morch DP-6 on a VPI MK IV/ TNT.

Kaput,

I have never put the fluid in my Morch DP-6, as there is no good way to get it out, if you don't care for the sound. It does a very good job without the damping. This combination has been up and running for six years w/o problem with any cartridge. I have used Denons, Benz Gliders, Clearaudios, and Koetsus with this set-up with both heavy and light wands. The Koetsu is so good it is frightening. Have an Audioquest 7000 and a Goldbug Mr. Briar waiting for a trial, but just can't take the Koetsu off. Did replace the tonearm lead with VDH from Aural Thrills.

Jim,

Do you have any experience with the TCI Viper tonerarm lead from Morch?

Eyiu,

No! Prior to that was using a standard tonearm lead from VPI. Really old lead. Sorry not to have answered sooner, but was out traveling and working.
