Comments on Moerch DP-8


I'm interested in comments from anyone who has experience with this tonearm. I'm especially curious how it compares to the Phantom II and Tri-planar VII.

I've long been intrigued by Moerch arms but I've been put off by the lack of fine VTA adjustment. The DP-8 appears to offer this feature. I wonder how well it works in practice.

The 10 Audio review was strongly positive. A few more points of view would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I can not compare with the above tonearms but this tonearm is much easer to set up and enjoy than the moerch up4 that I used prior to this tonearm.
I am using a ZYX Universe much much better base, fuller soundstage, more sparkle, as time goes by this combo is starting to realy shine

I can not comment on the dp6,but one of my issues in using the up4 was in setting up, it was not as user friendly as prior vpi tonearms tha I have used... The dp8 is easier to tweek,with a very solid base that allows you to adjusts azimuth much easier and VTA on the fly...

I AM A DEALER for the new ANVIL TURNTABLE I was asked to demo my new DP8 with zyx universe on this table and was able to have it up and singing in only minutes..
