Tone arm upgrade

Sorry, by better sound I will be more specific. Due to many things that are part of this tonearm such as a stiff and much shorter armwand, the bass has real clarity and punch, the mids are just plain beautiful sounding along with the highs. EVERY album you listen to will be easier on your ears and yet have superior definition and dynamics. There will be ONE PROBLEM--- shutting off the music and going to bed at a reasonable time. Soundwise compared to other arms, the Trans-Fi would be a great buy at 4-5 times it's price.

The Transfi Terminator linear tracking air bearing arm is about $1000. I found it to be a real revelation compared to my tricked out RB300. There are several good post on the Agon forum and reviews.

A Basis Vector tonearm has the same mounting distance and will drop in the same mounting hole if your Rega is a single hole mount. It will be a very significant upgrade from your Rega tonearm. you will not be disappointed. They occasionally show up used.

Appreciate all the comments, its been a while since I've had motivation to shop tonearms. Where I know the Rega fails is in arm resonance versus an Ittok, looking for better resonance damping. I'm quite happy with the Musical Phonomena II+ phono pre feeding Microzotl as pre, but can hear some loss of clarity on massed instruments with LP that I don't experience with digital playback.

For that budget you can get a used Graham, which will beat most anything in that price range.
