Graham Phantom vs Triplaner


Wondering about the sonic traits of both these arms compared to each other.

- which one has deeper bass,
- which one has the warmer (relative) balance
- which one is compatible with more cartridges
- which one has the better more organic midrange
- which one has the greater treble detail.
- which one plays music better ( yes this is a more subjective question ).
- which one goes better with say the TW acoustic raven TT.

D, These guys must have been on herron. HA! There I go, cracking myself up again. The improvement has to be huge, judging by the way these two were carrying on. They weren't working or showing product. They were over the moon showing everybody something they DON'T sell! I want an HRX! THX for the review. Do you also have the issue with the 312S? Z.

312S in part 2 with the brinkman, consonance & cartridge man linear tracking arm.
You can't just go to the summary dude!!
I am amazed from some "experiences" here, because some say - and think - that most of socalled Top Arms today are more or less close, sound more or less close, too and the differences depend on tweaks .... etc.
Well, I had (or have) the Tri VII, Phantom, Schroeder, SME V, Air Line, Graham 2.0/2.2 and some others here and compared them.
Their differences are not subtle, sometimes they are huge.
When some can not hear that, it is no problem, then they have probably speakers or electronics which is not able to do the task.
I had no problems to find out that some lack detail, or have problems to hold the Setting, or have problems with the bearing in combination with some cartridges.... and so on ....
Thank you about the information that all manufacturers are so nice and friendly. I whined after reading that.
The world is good :)
D, My bad. I was looking for a title reading 312S review. I mostly just look at the pictures anyway...

Thomas, I hope I had nothing to do with your whining. For some reason everybody was in a very special mood this year. I had the best time in many years, and if it's OK with you I would like to share with the guys not able to attend. If you are amazed when you learn something new, you should feel grateful. And maybe say "thank you". Looks like you have a pretty decent system there, nothing to "whine" about. You could do with a speaker upgrade, but couldn't we all? Perhaps it's a language thing , I'm not really sure I understand your post. Did you have a point you wanted to make? Z
