Anyone using Schroeder arms? Opinions pls.


Am considering the Schroeder model 2 due to budget constraits. Would welcome any feedback on the arm. Ease of setup. Sound. LP surface noise.

Thanks.

I have not had it in my system, but friends oversees rave about both of the tonearns made by Schroeder.
Ask Chris Brady of Teres Audio. He mates the arm to the 255 and 265. Chris is a very pleasant guy to talk to and knows his stuff. A straight shooter and very knowledgable individual. One of the best around IMHO.

Another guy is "khaki8" here at audiogon. He too owns a Schroeder and a very respectable and well mannered audiophile.
I've heard some opinions, mostly from reviews about a natural, non-mechanical sound, with good soundstaging and bass. On the Teres site, Chris mentions that the bass on the Model 1 is somewhat "soft" but makes up for it in other areas.

I was hoping for a user who has actual experience with one to comment on the sound, and perhaps explain why it is so special. How different is it compared to any other unipivot?
