The Schroeder model 1 is the best sounding tonearm I have
heard. Yet it is difficult to describe what it sounds like.
It has a few easily identified sonic flaws (loose bass,
less detail). Yet the arm sounds so compelling. It's like
the difference between vinyl and digital. Digital is clean
and flawless but just does not make music like vinyl does.
Ease of setup, well you don't get that with the Schroeder.
Lots of adjustments and the instructions are fair at best.
I have no idea about how the model 2 would stack up.
