DaVinci Tonearm

Thomas,I wish you the best of luck with your new arm.I'll be thinking of you May 19th,when the most exciting book I've read in a long while is released as a movie."The DaVinci Code"!!--Don't miss it!!!!!---I hope you have less trouble unraveling the mystery of the "arm",than I had with the book -:)

Best!

Tmij,

You state "I do lust for it and would swap my Dyna DV507mkII in a heartbeat", is there any particular reasons why you would give up the 507 mkII?

Does it's it's 3 lb. weight cause probems with the balance of your Yorke 7?

The reason I ask is that I have been eyeing the two used 507 mkII's for sale here, yet can't find anyone with hands-on experience with the arm.

Thomas,

can you order me one, too? I don't have a table yet but I'm currently collecting tonearms. :) Three and counting!

Darkmoebius, my desire to replace the Dyna has less to do with its performance and more about my drooling everytime I see a DaVinci ;) As to its 3lb weight, it doesn't cause problems with the Yorke. If I have to nitpick I've noticed when setting VTF and comparing a "hundredths accurate" digital scale that the gradations on the arm's VTF adjuster are off. But then it's also possible the scale is off... so take this with a grain of salt, I need another digital scale to compare and be sure.

Hi Thomas,
well why did you not go for the new Schroeder Reference SQ?
And what kind of mc cartridge do you want to mount on this
TA ?
