The Sumiko may well work with your Decca--try it. The damped unipivot arms (think Graham for example) are sure bets for Deccas, as Dopogue reports, but other designs can work too. One such was the Sugden Connoisseur arm, perhaps oddly enough because it was not a very high-spec'd device.
Best tonearm for London Reference Cartridge
Hi,
i have a Decca London Reference Cartridge (LRC), actually mounted in an older Mission Mechanic tonearm and would like to ask you with which tonearm one can get the most out of this wonderful cartridge.
The player is a Kuzma Stabi Reference and a Thorens TD 124, other arms i use are Sumiko MDC 800, Shindo Meursault and old Decca for ffss cartridges, but in these i haven´t tried it yet, but all these tonearm run with other cartridges so fantastic, that i don´t want to change them.
Some people recommend the long VPI 12.5, 12.6 or 12.7 tonearms. Have you some other suggestions?
Thanks very much!
