Dynavector DV 507 MKII

I'm a Dynavector dealer. I saw the arm in black at CES (looked beautiful). I confirmed with the USA importer that it is now available in black as well as silver.

Sorry for kind of off topic, but I guess the case is kind of solved?

Do you all use the built in tracking force adjuster, or do you use the sub-weight for most of the preasure?

Dear Fosse: Like all other Dynavector tonearms the 507 MK2 is a dynamic balance design but you can use it in static way using , like you say, the counterweight only. IMHO and over my experiences with those tonearms it performs better in a static way but like almost always that is system/ears dependent.

regards and enjoy the music.

The sub-weight is used only to zero out the arm, not to apply VTF.

Dear Audiofeil: Yes it is but any one can use it as main counterweight like in any static balance tonearm: you set to 0(cero ) the VTF dial and aply the VTF through the ( a,b,c ) sub-weight, that's all. IMHO works really fine, you can/could try it and " see " what happen by your self.

regards and enjoy the music.
