Had a basis table with vector 4 arm. Now have innovation wood with graham supreme arm and benz lp-s cartridge (and second arm is schick 12" with Miyajima mono). While i tend toward wanderlust, given the performance of clearaudio innovation I AM done. Utterly perfect pitch stability. Easy to set up. Could not be happier with service level (eg Mike at Musical Surroundings). The Innovation takes best of digital (low noise floor and powerful dynamics) and adds magic of analogue - huge soundstage and true harmonics/texture. I could not be happier. AJ at Basis makes great suspended tables esp if used with his vector tonearm. But i like the speed stability and clarity of the innovation.
Clearaudio innovation wood or SME 20/3
Looking for my last table. I will be using my SME V arm and Lyra Kleos cartridge. Rest of my system is posted. Have heard both these tables at shows and was impressed with both.
It has to be set it and forget it. And support (if needed) is as important as sonics to me. Any one have any input on sound comparisons of these two tables? Thanks for any help.
