Airtangent arm; what table under 10k?

Siddh,
Interesting. The Walker is my 'ideal' table but I just can't afford one.
I'm suprised that the Clearaudio Reference outperformed the TNT/Airtangent. What arm did you use with that table?
The reason I ask is because my purchase of an Airtangent just fell through.
Thanks.

I gotta tell you, the Walker is a source of a different level. This past week I changed arms to a Diamond and as good as the originl table sounded it's now beyond expectations.
The Clearaudio was purchased during a system rebuild subsequent to a priority change, in which time I had sold off most of my system. Many component changes were made, so direct comparison of the two tables is unavailable. The arm on the Clearaudio was the Souther and for the most part this combo did most things right. With the ancillary components it didn't suffer the rigidness as some describe it.
As with all the systems I have put together, matching and tweaking is essential to creating a musical experience. Each upgrade or change may present differences, but not always those sought for. As enamored as I am with the Walker in my system, I read of observers at the Rocky Mountain show criticizing the Walker Diamond for being cold and uninvolving. Sooo the opposite of what I hear.

I've read great things about the Black Diamond. Those critical of the sound probably like the sound of a wooden arm like the Schroeder. Since I haven't heard either, I can't comment.
