Verdier Graham and Shelter???


I am about to buy a Verdier and my cartidge is a Shelter 901.

Now I am loocking for a tonearm wich could match both Verdier and Shelter.

I know that the Shroeder DPS or REFERENCE could be a possible combo but delivery time is several months.

Is the Graham 2.2 a possibility?

Does somebody have an idea ?

Thanks

I agree with all the above arm suggestions. I'd choose a Moerch DP-6, a TriPlanar VII or any Schroeder over a Graham 2.2 for use with a low compliance cartridge like a Shelter. The SME IV and V are also excellent on a Verdier.

The PV is, as Raul said, a wonderful table. It should be the last TT you'll ever need to buy. Give it the best arm you can afford and you'll be set for life. The DP-6 is especially tempting due to those interchangeable wands. It should be able to handle nearly any cartridge you'll ever own.

I also agree with Raul that, when time and budget allow, a Verdier and a good arm will well repay the investment in a better cartridge than a 901. I may not completely agree with the one he suggested though. ;-)
