the perfect tonearm


I know that it doesn't exist, but I'm looking for a tonearm retailing less than $2000 that has multiple virtues- easy to setup even for a clod like myself, flexibility eg, VTA on the fly, azimuth and easy anti-skating adjustments and also with a effective mass that allows it to be used with a wide range of cartridges. Oh, and I prefer the classic looking S shaped arms if possible.

Some that are intriguing are Graham 2.2, Jelco 750, SME 3012???

I second the MA-505 or MA-505S (S stands for silver wire) if you can find one in good condition. It is an S sharp arm which allows you to change VTA, tracking force, and anti-skating on the fly.
