Looking for a great arm that is low maintenence

I am a lucky guy with a bit of money to spend on what people say. Some said that it was good to have a neutral arm to go along with a "romantic cartridge", so I took the advice and I went for Graham 2.2 with Koetsu Urushi first and now with Rosewood Platinum Sig. At certain point in time, I came across HP's recommendation and decided to go along with Triplanar 7 with Miyabi 47lab cartridge. Reluctantly to discard one arm after another followed by the decision I had made, I mounted both of them on a Nottingham turntable.

It comes the phono stage. I have had Black cube, EAR 834P, AudioResearch Reference Phono, 47lab Phonocube with dual power supply, TomEvan The Groove, and the Whest. I spent a lot time tweaking and pairing each of these phono stage with the arm/cartridge combinations.

I settled down finally with Koetsu to go along with Whest or 47Lab phono stage and Miyabi with The Groove. I found both combinations equally and highly musical involving. My problem is it is very hard for me to switch from one combination to the other every time after i get to listen to either of them.

There is no maintenance on either of the arms. They are both great arms! It just depends on the synergy of the system which you put up.

The rest of my system consists of The CAT Ultimate Preamp runs into the mono block of McIntosh 275. They drive the Avalon Ediolon speakers. My digital fronts are the Burmester 969/970 combo.

Raul,and Larry etc,Actually try Sirspeedy7068@earthlink.net.

Drop the last "0" in 70680.I hope this is helpful in getting in touch!

Also Raul,I really don't want to get into a subject of contradicting the UNIV fans.As to your post aiming at Doug.

You are a better man than that!That was not necessary!!You know I like you,and you have a right to voice your "opinions",but being mean is beneath you.So someone liked a specific product,and didn't like another.What real significance does that really have when very few of us have actually heard eachothers' systems.To me,the only time to get "Hot Under The Collar" is when someone actually targets me with a false accusation,or is downright nasty.Or doesn't realize that my set-up is actually the "Best in the World"!!!Just kidding!!!Then the gloves can come off.Don't worry about getting beaten up.Have you ever taken a look at us "audio geeks"?The next time you are at a HI FI show take a look at the crowd.Imposing tough guys?I don't think so!!Even if a fellow hobbyist does not find something credible,we have NO IDEA what that persons views towards what his "sonic tastes" are.So,it's a matter of opinion,only!

As far as I'm concerned,with the amount of time you seem to spend on this website,how am I to be convinced that you have gotten ANY kind of accuracy from your extensive collection?I have to hear something myself to be really definitive.Though if one thinks something looks like a great design,I see no reason why it should not be recommended as a possible good product!

Fortunately nobody can "smack" us through the screen.When technology gets to that point I'll quit this forum!!Best luck!

SORRY!!!I was responding to the comments made towards CELLO,not Doug ,on the Titan Re-tip thread!

Raul,I think I may have "done it again" and butted in when I should have stayed out of something that was none of my business.I feel,now,that it was pointless for me to interject my own thoughts.As I had indicated to you in the past I'm surely NOT the audio police.Sorry!Sorry!Sorry!I really have to get a life.

I wish I were more like Dougdeacon,or Albert Porter,who are always able to stay on topic.They must have been really good students,in school!
