The Michell arms are I believe Rega arms certainly the Technoarm 2 and the similar looking T2, modified by Michell for VTA adjustment. The Michell turntable accepts many of the arms available to-day, you just have to buy the approriate "armboard". John Michell's preference was for SME - he used an SME V at Hi-fi shows, as do Proac Speakers with an Orbe SE.
The Wand turntable
Does anyone have at home or have listened The Wand turntable, by NZL Design Build Listen?
I have seen some reviews about the wand tonearm, but nothing about the turntable+tonearm.
I come from a Thorens 160 + Linn basik plus tonearm + Sumiko Blue point 2 (and I would keep this cartridge).
Many friends of mine suggest me to buy Michell Gyrodec, but I do not like very much the Michell tonearm.
So I am watching this NZL turntable: it looks a very good tonearm but a poor turntable.
