Tonearm recommendation

Fleib,
Factory nulls for the Dynavector arms are
Inner 60.1mm    Outer 116.5mm ( VE is wrong )
Dynavector state that their arm geometry is set for minimum lateral tracking angle error at the inner groove. Tracking angle error for Dynavectors using standard Dynavector alignment is 0degree at inner band of record and +2.2degrees at outside.
They do not specify which record they use as a reference so inner band could mean anything.

Lewm - Fyi my 501 has the DV7A arm base which allows for metal arm boards - the DV7A uses a single through hole collet and bolt under the arm board. This base provides a much more rigid coupling to the arm board than the the traditional screw in arm base used in the 505 that only has a top plate and screws. I suspect this was also a factor in the designer of the Final Audio VTT1 rejecting the 505 in favour of the 501.


 

Dear analogluvr: """  there is no lack of low frequency information. """

I would like ask: compared against which other tonearms and with which cartridges and in which audio systems? did you compare it against the same digital tracks in a digital player using at least 24 bits/192 DACs?

Regards and enjoy the music,

@rauliruegas thanks for your advice.

Sold my EPA-100 last year, now thinking about EPA-100 mk2 (at least) or some other budged arms you have recommended in the past here. My ex EPA-100 from seller Foxtan was deffected (loose bearing) from the start, returned to the seller to fix the problem. I got it bask soon with no problem but i can not verify is that original ruby bearing or replaced one by his vendor. He told me the vendor should add silicone fluid in the bearing part (someone has mentioned this here). Later someone told me it can be tricky as the original ruby ball can be also replaced by cheaper bearing from sl1210 arm instead. So i was not sure about my arm after his service. I just decided to get rid of it.

Later for my main system (sp10 mk2) i just bought demo Reed 3P "12 cocobolo directly from Lithuania from the manufacturer and i’m happy. I’ve met people at Reed in person, they are very friendly and provided top class service and price for me for their used early version of Reed 3P (great arm imho).

I wonder what is the fair price for Lustere GST 801 nowadays?

P.S. i have Shcick "12 tonearm but it’s for low compliacne carts mainly. I have some mid - high compliacne MM cartridges (including Stanton 980 LZS) now and i want some decent arm for second system.
