Tonearm for rega Planar 3

Hi guys,
Thanks for all of the responses. I was looking at the moth MK1 aka the rega RB 251. Acadia audio sells this arm with options for an incognito rewire and vta adjustment. I am inclined to go this route because the table I purchased was monted with a higher priced rega arm that used the 3 point mounting method which this new rb 251 also uses. They claim this is a more stable mounting method and sells for around $220.00 without mods. Is the rewire worth the extra cost?
Mingles, my budget is around $300.00. I was hoping to find a used arm here for around that price.
Thanks

Mosin, you never said anything about a turntable being "good', you stated clearly that the only design parameters for a turntable was speed accuracy. I tried to point out that "Without imparting anything etc. " could cover almost any conclusion you wish to draw. All turntables and all arms have their own ideosynceries and "logic" will tell you that some will match up better than others.

Stanley,

I suppose the "without imparting anything detrimental to the outcome" part should have been emphasized more. Anyway, you are correct in that speed alone isn't the end of turntable design. It should be in there, if you want to get the overall design right, though. So, I concede that a great many turntables should have some tonearm that is somehow matched to them for sonic reasons, but I maintain that those turntables are flawed when that is the case.

When I post a response about a product I sell, I identify myself as a dealer. from the following email I received:

Well, logic tells us that a turntable can be designed that will allow a tonearm to strut its stuff in an unencumbered way. I build such a deck, but I suppose some things just don't have much stuff to strut. Maybe you should upgrade, if your components fall into that category. ;)

It appears that he is a turntable manufacture, and it is apparently his position is that if you don't agree with him your equipment is defective. I have used tables in the past like the TNT and Basis Ovation and have returned to being a VPI dealer, currently using their tables. They are good, but I would never say that they were perfect or equally good with all arms and am suspicious of anyone who makes such claims. It may reveal my ignorance but I don't know what perfect table he is the maker of, but I am sure he will tell us.

Stanwal,

Actually, I don't know if the perfect turntable will ever be built. I do know that the interaction between the device and the associated pieces should be as minimal as possible, no matter who makes it. I don't believe I am the only turntable builder who believes this should be the case. Sorry if you are somehow offended, but those are my beliefs on the issue. I told you I made a turntable in an e-mail because you treated me as if I were a novice. I never intended my status as a manufacturer to cast a shadow in the conversation, which is why my correspondence to you was offline. It was you who published that private correspondence, but carry on.
