Dynavector DV-507 Mk II ?

I am looking for an arm with hight effective mass for a Miyajima mono cartridge. Supposedly those cartridges are not finicky about VTA but horizontal travel of the needle is everything, and I wonder if this arm with high horizontal stability would be an excellent choice for such a cartridge. The good Miyajima cartridges have compliance of only 8 um/Dyne. Any thoughts? Also, I need to mount the arm on a SOTA turntable which apparently has the armboard sunk somewhat lower than your average depth. Can anyone comment on whether the arm might have a problem getting high enough off the armplate to play properly?

In what plane is the compliance data you quoted? Since, as you say, this true mono cartridge only responds to horizontal motion of the cantilever, its vertical compliance is not so relevant, if that figure is for vertical compliance.  Anyway, the horizontal compliance is probably also low.  The Dynavector tonearms are high in horizontal effective mass but low in vertical effective mass.

I'm using a Miyajima Infinity mono on a FR-64S with great success.

I believe the Dyna arm is also to heavy for your SOTA.

i have a 505 and have found it lovely sounding on a DP-75 custom constrained layer plinth. Ive used the following MC cartridge on it FR-MK2, Dynavector 17 D3, Lyra Delos, Koetsu Urishi Black, and a Kuzma CAR-40. For MM both a Signet TK-9 and Grace / Soundsmith Ruby OCL. As Lew mentioned headshell selection important. I use the stock Dyna HS but replaced leads.

I also have the latest version of Triplaner and find it superior, by a fair bit in both resolution and PRaT ( don’t read the thread on that ). My observation based on idential TT, isolation, armboard but with wiring and setup differences between the two arms Surface mount arms certainly reduce variable. 

I also have a 12” Ortofon, which so far has eluded me in clearly besting the Dynavector.

I can also attest to USA Dynavector distributior as providing FANTASTIC support.

Thanks for your comments!
