Gimbal vs unipivot tonearms


Curious as to the difference between these types of arms. In my experience, it seems as if unipivots are much more difficult to handle.

Is it like typical debates - depends on the actual product design/build or is one better sounding or less expensive or harder to set up....?

sokogear, there is no accounting for taste. There have been some pretty fancy and expensive unipivot arms. To my knowledge only the Graham as remained a true unipivot and managed to control the torsional stability problem. It is very expensive and there are many who think it is the best arm out there. The one I have played with dates back before  magnetic stabilization and it suffered all of the typical unipivot problems. Basis added a second bearing. 
@cleeds, sorry about my mis-typing of gimbal. Proper well designed 2 axis arms are better and that is a fact. Why do you think the manufacturers of two very fine arms went through so much trouble to stabilize the third axis? Ask Mark Dohmann or Frank Schroder that question and they will give you the very same answer.
 IMHO the VPI tonearm is garbage which is not to say it can't sound ok under the right circumstances. Originally it even had no anti skating device. My guess is the designer could not figure out how to add one so he made up this story about how it sounded better without it. I am not kidding either. 
Peter Ledermann is entitled, like the rest of us to make an occasional mistake. Because he finally associated with  the right tonearm designer I will forgive him that mistake, not that he really cares. But I did buy one of his more expensive cartridges. Can't wait to hear it. 
@chakster , The Reed 3P is not a unipivot arm and certainly does not act like one. It is very creative but IMHO the 2G is the Reed arm to go for.
I was considering it but in the end I went for the Schroder CB. 
The quote I posted above is what Reed designer explained about his bearing system. I have my Reed 3p since 2013, you are late.

Is it just me who is marvelling at Mijostyn‘s certainties in life?;  he is again spouting generalities from insufficient data. In particular I‘d like to challenge him with a good Mørch or Hadcock design with a suitable cartride (e.g. Musicmaker, top Grado) to substantiate his claim. The resonance frequencies of unipivots are very different from heavy gimballed arms and hence mounting say a Miyabe or EMT Tondose won‘t get you very far. Conversely arguing that the liveliness and openness of a Unipivot have no attractiveness only supports his preconceived views of the world.
