Clearaudio or Acoustic signature Double x


I would like to hear from current or past owners of the Clearaudio Performance and the tonearm/cartridge used and Acoustic Signature Double x with either the TA-1000 or TA 2000 tonearm, and if you've had both tables the pluses and minuses for each, as I am in the market for one of these and I cant make up my mind, perhaps with a little feedback from the Audigon community I will be able to?
Thanks everyone

Thanks for the input audiosaurusrex, yes Im leaning towards the AS double X, as I love the beauty of the table, my budget is ~5-6K maybe a few bucks more if I have to, but not much more, The reason I'm asking on this forum, is I don't see much in the way of Reviews on the AS double X, as I do on the Clearaudio, I also considered the VPI classic, however the German engineering seems to be just a cut above, let me know if i'm wrong on this point?
Thanks for the reply audiosaururex, I have the double-x scheduled to arrive tomorrow, im sure I will be with this table for a while, however I still haven't decided on whether I should get the TA-1000, or the TA 2000, I contacted Marc at fidelis and he has excellent price on the TA-2000, any input on tonearms is most welcome, I also thought about the Kuzma Stogi S 12 VTA, as they state it can be mounted on tables requiring 9inch arms, however, the synergies of AS arm and table, are probably the smart way?
I looked at you system, that turntable is sweeeet!, White never the less, never thought about white, but that plinth is outstanding!
