Does it really get any better than the Raven AC ??

Just received my new three motor Raven AC from Jeff at Highwater Sound. SImply the best analog I've heard. The combo of Raven AC, Dynavector 507 mk2 and the Xv1s cartridge is remarkable. My collection never sounded this good. I'd encourge you to give the table a look if your in the market for something really special.

The Davinci 12" arm & Davinci table combination that I heard out classed both the Raven & Walker. It was the best analogue reproduction I've ever heard by a long shot.

Ketchup,

It was mostly the Phantom arm and cart mounting TW re-setup.

Sbrown,

Did you hear the Davinci and TW in the same system with the same cart?

I have no doubt the Davinci is fantastic, but what would stop other elements of the system (cart, phono stage) from creating your impression of the best analog you had ever heard?

Ketchup, yes it was the same everything but the table & arm. I suspect it's the mag bearing of the Davinci table that sets it apart from the others.
