Brinkmann vs TW Acustic


Was wondering how these two German manufacturers compare.
Bardo vs Raven One
Oasis vs Raven GT
LaGrange vs Raven AC
Is there a unique sound signature that goes up with the range? Which is a better value? (i.e. maybe the Oasis is better than the Raven AC)
Have heard both in show conditions, but could not pin-point their contribution to the end result as the rest of the system was unfamiliar as well.

I think Syntax has a problem with everyone that doesn't agree with him.
I am another TW fan.The GT and 10.5 helped to complete my system.
Darren,
Dancing with your 3 year old is what music is all about.
Time does fly.
Let me know when your next trip to L.I. is planned.
Music and lunch/dinner is on me.
I just happen to be a brunette and vanilla guy too.
All the best

I hate headers that use vs.
This is a hobby not a football or basketball game(although some use these forums for a great debate)
Whats next,Vanilla vs.Chocolate?
Blondes vs.Brunettes?
In this hobby everything is subjective.Therefore how can anyone reply with an absolute ?
We dont know the sound of the op's complete system.
In fact we dont know what he or anyone else hears.
So how can we argue what we dont know.Is this Mock Court?
I use a TW GT table.Is it the best? I really dont know but it thrills me every time I listen and thats all that matters.
Again guys this is a hobby,stop turning it into self promotion and arrogance.
My rant for the day.And now Chico Hamilton is waiting.


Wrm57,
What I see are a volume of attacks by Syntax,Dev and others in every thread that mentions TW.
As Dev has mentioned ,his current system is far from his first and I would think Syntax had other components prior to his current listing,Yet they do not bash,knock ,downgrade these other components that they have moved on from.
I'm not writing to defend TW although I do own the GT and 10.5.and they certainly dont need my defense.
Please re-read Dgad's 04-15 post it just about sums it up but I still wonder what is Syntax and others real objective.
I'm sure its not to save us from the horrors of a great turntable

Dev,
You mention BACK DOOR DEALS so Jeff doesn't get his ridiculous chunk of change.
I'm curious did you get your VAC electronics through the BACK DOOR so the dealer can be bi-passed or does your VAC dealer and the maker of your other components deserve their ridiculous chunk of change.
I have know idea what may have happened but it seems like this is really a vendetta against one of the recognized GOOD GUYS in this industry.
Dev , We all try to save money and where or how you purchased your TT is not an issue.Your remark that you didn't want Jeff to get his ridiculous chunk of change and yet was willing to give your VAC dealer his commision shows you have something against Jeff.
What is also puzzling is that although your TW table was purchased through diverted channels you would then ask Jeff or Thomas for assistance.
You have an outstanding system,I wish you many tears of enjoyment
As for your mention above that my question was a stupid post I'll just chalk it up to you having a bad day.
Dev,Really!! Of course I can read.And by the way comprehend
also.Which is what you fail to do.
This has nothing to do with your reply to Dgad.
I'm now starting to wonder if your temperment allows you to appreciate the music.
Calm down and try to fully understand what posters are saying.
Syntax isn't upset
