Gyrodec arm suggestions help?


Hi All,

I'm seriously looking at a SME IV for my Michell Gyrodec. Is this a well regarded match? I currently use a Michell Techno Arm which I often struggle to get the best fine tuning of the cartridge. So I have read that the SME IV is easy to set up. I'm looking for an arm that sets up a cartridge accurately. VTA is always a bug bear to me. getting it right etc. I know it's been available for years in it's current form. I've read some where that it's not leading edge any more. Is this an accurate statement? Or just from someone who doesn't like it.

My TT has all the latest upgrades orbe platter, latest power supply etc. I currently have a Ortofon MC 30 Supreme, F117 Nighthawk phono stage, 18w valve amp, horn / 12" woofer speaker

The SME arms were used during the design of the Michell tables, I would think it'll be a good match. I've also use the Morch DP-6 with excellent results when I had your table.
