ZYX Airy 3 Best SUT
Doug, very interesting info on the output of Zyx. I happened noticed not by measure but by listening, Zyx Univ. (.24mv) is actually higher output than A90 (.27mv), since you mentioned a factor of 1.34, it makes sense.I think to achive the best sou... 
Tron Seven Phono
Very curious to know whether this static build up problem is due to the motor unit is housed on the table base. Hard to imagine the static is from belt to motor shaft, then the problem will be all over the place. 
Tonearm: Phantom vs. 4 Point vs. 10.5
Jarraa, when I first installed 10.5, I didn't pay too much attention to AS, just leave it around the middle way. Later on, I used HiFi&RR test record (the torture track) to test the AS, to my surprise, applying max AS resulted in the push of a... 
Tonearm: Phantom vs. 4 Point vs. 10.5
Graham Phantom has a very clever little tool to help setup P2S. It's a plastic cap on the spindle. A hole on the head shell to fit into the tip of the cap, level the arm, and P2S is set.While setting up Phantom, I noticed a hole on the TW 10.5 hea... 
Tonearm: Phantom vs. 4 Point vs. 10.5
Phil, what's your findings on the difference between MintLP and TW alignment plate? Since you mentioned initially you used Baerwald, but TW 10.5 is Loefgren B, so there should be some adjustment if MintLP uses Loefgren B.Have you checked again aft... 
Multi Arm Table
TW Raven Two can have two arms with a small foot print (18x17). The armboard can have interchangable insert for different tonearms. Raven AC could be better and have four arms capacity but with a much larger foot print and cost much more. 
Linn lp12
What power supply do you have with your LP12? If you changed the motor and still had the same problem, could be something wrong with the PS. 
TW-Acustic Arm
Audioblazer, can you confirm the anto-skate does work on your arm? Or simply you just has some concerns on how it works. If all parts intalled properly on Raven 10.5 arm, I think AS will work. The way it works I believe is that the magnet in the b... 
TW Acustic 10.5 and Graham Phantom Supreme II
Pradeep, when you mounted Talea on your Raven AC, did you order a new armboard insert for Talea or simply use the armboard for Tri-Planar? Thanks. 
TW Acustic 10.5 and Graham Phantom Supreme II
Pradeep, Talea should be a fine arm given it's price point. Do you have I or II? Have you ever done a direct comparison between yuor Talea and Raven 10.5? 
TW Acustic 10.5 and Graham Phantom Supreme II
I have both Raven 10.5 and Graham Phantom II (upgraded from I, might further upgrade to Supreme) mounted on Raven Two TT. Still not get to the point to offer any valid comparison on the sound between the 2 arms. But I will offer some of my observa... 
Linn LP12 Bearing Lube
You can try Mobil 1, can get from any auto shop. I used it a few years ago from an online tip, works fine. It's clear not like Linn oil black. 
TW-Acustic Raven 10.5 or DaVinci Grandezza??
Dertonarm: Are you for real? After pomp the Grandezza to a future class status and value, now came to the dump of your Grandezza for under 5K even 2K lower than another demo unit in US. LOL. 
TW-Acustic Raven 10.5 or DaVinci Grandezza??
Dertonarm, this is really blowing the wind hard.My tonearm too does feature azimuth adjustment (in fact with fine calibrated scale that is - so one will always get back to precisely set positions) - as you will see in 4 months here pictured on Aud... 
TW-Acustic Raven 10.5 or DaVinci Grandezza??
10-26-11: DertonarmTW 10.5 ...;-) ... within Germany the history of that "german tonearm" is much better known than in the USA.Read careful what you are quoting.I took position against the "pre-introduction hype and laurels" - for good reason.All ...
