Merry Christmas to Me.....New tonearm on the way

Good tonearm, however, if you feel that you have optimized all other aspects of your vinyl playback system, you may be slightly disappointed with the results of simply adding a new tonearm.. I'd be willing to bet that I could make some less expensive tweaks, adjustments or changes, that you'd notice the improvements more significantly. Getting vinyl playback close to perfect is a very involved set checks and balances (so to speak).. For instance (just for starters), has your existing phono equipment been set up by a professional? There are a number of seemingly small variants that can make a sizable difference. (Or do you consider yourself a professional?) And that's just to start.

Secondly, what kind of record cleaning and preservation equipment do you have. 

A perfectly cleaned LP (assuming that it's not completely worn out) can astonish you, when you listen to the results. And that's just another small "tweak" in the playback chain.  Get the picture?. I would hate to think the have concluded that "just throwing money at it" will give you results worthy of the investment.. But I'm not saying that it won't help.

Good Luck

Way to rain on the OP's parade, "axpert".  Did that make you feel better?

The TriPlanar is a much better design and will sound better if you know what to listen for. Pitch over long sustained notes will be more stable. It will handle warps better.

Setting up an arm once you know what you are doing is a straight forward process taking at most 30 minutes.  Some audiophiles prefer to make a circus out of it, gushing over a second or two of angle. The delude themselves.

Congrats on the new tonearm. One of my best upgrades was a tonearm upgrade.

The Triplanar looks like a terrific addition to your system.  I have only seen heard that arm in unfamiliar systems. but, I know it is a favorite among very serious vinyl fanatics and it is certainly a well-built arm.
