Grahma Phantom vs Tri-Planer?

ZYX UNIverse (get the LO if at all possible, as with the Rhea)
- TriPlanar is well and widely known as a superb match, none better
- Schroeder Ref is also a great match, slightly lower noise floor/blacker backgrounds but a little less jump and pace; choosing between these two matchups is a matter of taste

ZYX Airy 3 (get the LO if at all possible, as with the Rhea)
- Schroeder Ref is a superb match, what I'd choose for this cartridge
- TriPlanar is a very good match, but perhaps a trace brighter

Haven't head the Phantom and I'll defer to others on matching the Dyna's.

Best,
Doug

Thanks Doug! Your input is so appreciated!!!!!!

I have a different opinion than Doug. In my experience the Basis Vector 3 is a better match with the UNIverse than the Tri-Planar. The Tri-Planar is easier to adjust but the Vector 3 tracks the UNIverse better.

Don't forget everybody, IMO.

Rick,I hope you don't take this long to make a buying decision(over a year now?),when shopping for groceries!Your poor family!!When my wife asks me to wait in the car,during a food stop,I always know I could take a nice long nap.-:)

Hi Mark! Hah!! I'm like a little kid in a canyd/toy store. There are so many great items to choose from....Galibria, Teres, Lenco, Gerrard, Brinkman, Schroder (if ever I could wait) Tri-Planer, Graham and the list goes on.
I do rely on you all for help and advice and I know that ultimately it is my decision!
I do, however, have a plan.....I just hop the Home/Entertainment show in May has some of there items I mentioned there so I can hear them in person all the same day. Then, perhaps I will make a quick decision then! Who knows??
