I recently purchased an OL Silver for use with my new Zyx Bloom cartridge and was blown away by how much an upgrade this was. I can definitely recommend the OL Silver for high effective mass applications (such as the Zyx). I'm hoping to put together a short review in the coming weeks, for what that's worth. A basic sneak peek is that I took both arms (RB300 and the OL Silver) and both cartridges (Denon DL-103D and Zyx Bloom L) and tried the 4 different combinations and was most impressed by the difference the OL silver made, irrespective of cartridge. Now, again, the Zyx cartridge is phenominal, but that's a different discussion ;)
Michell Technoarm vs Origin Live Silver vs ???
I'm looking at a new tonearm to replace my old Audioquest PT6. The Michell Technoarm and Origin Live arms are always mentioned together, and seem similar in that they improve on the old Rega RB250 design.
So, any comparisons of the two?
Any comments on each of their improvements (sonically and technically)?
Any suggestions for a different arm upgrade at about the $1000 or so level?
Thanks,
Bob
PS: I have a custom made non-suspended turntable using VPI parts (motor and MK III platter and bearing) and a solid 1" Corian plinth.
