Kuzma Stabi Ref/Stogi Ref vs TW Acustic Raven One


I'd like to upgrade my Kuzma Stabi/Stogi TT. Stabi/Stogi Ref is an obvious choice. How about TW Raven One with Ortofon 309S? Has anybody compared? How much improvement would be a better arm (4Point, Graham)? Or a better TT (Raven AC, KuzmaXL) for three times the price? Thanks a lot.

The Ortofon AS309 is a very good arm period. For the price it is exceptional.
It is more relaxed sounding than the Phantom, however the Phantom does have slightly better dynamics and VTA adjustment and a lot more expensive.

The great thing about the raven (besides the sound) is the ability to mount two arms very easily and enjoy them both.

I have the Kuzma Reference with a Triplanar arm. It is an outstanding combination. I was considering an XL for a while, but in the end, I could not justify the price difference.

Wish I could comment on the Raven, but I haven't had the opportunity to evaluate one.
One of my audiophile buddies owns a Raven AC with Triplanar, Airline and a Kuzma Reference with Airline. 90% of his time he listens to the Kuzma. He says, the difference is huge.
