To Raven One owners.....

I used an LP12 with Origin Live DC motor and Ittok arm. Very nice, musical, but the Origin Live Resolution was a big step up in detail, base and neutrality. The TW Acustic Raven one, is another big step up on the Origin Live. Even with the utilitarian, Vivid arm, it is very good indeed.

No Regrets,
Any sign of spring weather down your way yet?...

I also owned a Linn for many years which I bought in 1984 and enjoyed up until 2001.

My first e-mail to Jeff of High Water Sound ,I asked if there were any owners of the Raven tables here in Ontario Canada.

Jeff e-mailed back with names and e-mail address of three happy owners.
There could very well be an owner near you.

Stiltskin,

Well, I'll tell you, it's been a long winter here in Wisconsin. It seemed as though it snowed every other day. We had record snow falls this season...thank God for good audio or I would have gone stir crazy. The last few days have been in the 40's, birds are singing, so I hope spring is on the way.

That is an excellent point you made, and I think I'll ask Jeff if he knows of anyone between here and say Chicago that may have one.

David12, you mentioned that Thomas is designing a tone arm for the Raven One. Do you have a link to any information on this arm. I hadn't heard anything about it as of yet.

Thanks

NO REGRETS..... No, when I bought my table from Graham at GT audio in the UK, he mentioned it. Thomas is certainly working on an arm, which may be available later in the year. I suspect he will not release it, unless he is happy with it. He seems something of a perfectionist, so nothing is certain yet. Designing an arm seems a very different engineering challenge to a table. At least it seems different to a non engineer. Someone said it was mentioned on the TW site, but I can't find it. He is coming to the UK show next weekend, given the chance I will ask him.

Has anyone gone from a Nottingham Hyperspace to a Raven One? If I went this route what differences in presentation should I expect?
