Nobody is going to build a "fundamentally flawed arm" and sell it for thousands of dollars. I too have not heard of a single bad review of the arm from owners. It's one of those things - unless you try it yourself, it'll just be speculation.
@lewm +1 👍
I only hear great things from VivLabs users describing tangential like performance, easily warranting a debate for anti-skating vs. tracking error. |
Interesting. Also interesting is how the geometry standards that are held on to with such fervor were all calculated when mono 78’s were the gold standard. Things have move forward a bit since then. Would be interesting to do a proper A/B comparison between this and a more traditional arm of equal merit. I find anti skate distortions to be very audible when setting up a new cartridge and dialing it in. Again, would love to do a proper A/B test. Not going to judge something I have not heard. Look forward to seeing other’s experiences with this arm. There are some who think anything other than a stone wheel with a wooden axel is snake oil. Just ignore them. |
