breuer 5c tonearm


there is not much info to be found on this arm. i'm in the process of mounting it to my micro seiki rx 1500. i have sent my phono cable out to be re-terminated for the din connection. the din on the arm seems to have thicker pins than the standard din plug. anyone else have any experience with this arm? general recommendations? please share any experience that you have had with the arm.
thanks

i posted some system pics under "corby's system(s)" in the all out assault section. enjoy...thanks for the prompt
well i finally got everything together to mount the breuer on the micro 1500. i would not have ever thought that there would be so much improvement possible in changing tonearms. comparing it to the max 282, the breuer sounds alive. tremendous depth of soundstage and tons of life in the highs and mids. vocals are real, piano is real, bass is tight and defined. what a beautiful arm. the max has a new home on my ddx because the breuer is now at home on my rx1500!

Brizonbiovizier, can you expand on your statement about the brinkman? i'd be interested in understanding what differences you heard. thanks.
i did have it installed on my micro ddx1000 with a benz H20 and loved it. so i thought i would displace my micro seiki max 282 with a benz ebony with the breuer to see what it would do. thanks for the reply.

i bought the max and the 1500 new back in the 80's. great combo. i bought the breuer used recently and it sounded incredible on the ddx, hence the move to the rx1500. i know jody of globe audio well. can't afford the new breuer (yet....). i think that the 9" breuer will blow away the 12" micro seiki , from what i've heard already. i'm just waiting for the cable and some machining of parts to fit the breuer to the 1500. there's something special about the breuer.....
