As others have pointed out, the cartridge/tonearm match is more important than the tonearm itself. Since the cartridge shapes the sound more, you should really settle on that first.
Dear Weirdsailboat: I don't know which ADC tonearm you own ( mayme LMf-1 or 2. ) but in my experience ( I owned ADC tonearm ) is a good tonearm if you matched with the right cartridge that in the ADC case is a MM cartridge.
There are many options for a good MM cartridge at a very good price ( around 150.00-200.00 ). The quality MM cartridge performance is " surprising " high. So IMHO you not necessary need a new tonearm but a new MM cartridge and with the money that you save you can buy a lot of LP's.
Been searching for a list of tonearms that will work with the AX-1 armboard with no luck. Anyone have any knowledge of what tonearms are compatible without having to upgrade the armboard?
