Would a Dynavector XX2 MkII be good upgrade?


Currently using VPI Scoutmaster w/Sig JMW arm, Dynavector 20XL.
(phono stage is a Rhea Signature)

Is the XX2 a significant upgrade?
Is it too good for my tonearm?
Where is a good place to buy one?

Hi Ian,

I'm loving it in my Signature Scout, I would think you would, too. Did you ever get a good speaker match for your room? You were having problems finding speakers that would get the bass right in your room, as I recall. Any luck?

Ian, I'm using the JMW9 Signature arm, and ever since I used the MintLP Tractor, I've been very satisfied and surprised at how good it sounds. Once you get yours there, I'm sure you'll feel the same as I do. Good luck on your seaker situation, hope you get that resolved soon.

Best, Dan
Teleshack,

I agree about the cantilever protector Dynavector supplies with the XX2. I have found, though, the simple use of masking tape, judiciously applied, keeps the flimsy protector in place. No problems or worries that way.

By the way, Ian, I'm now using the XX2 on a Dynavector DV 501 arm, mounted on a DIY Garrard 401 restoration, and loving it even more.

Regards,
Dan
