Graham Phantom vs. Phantom II

Hi, I own the Phantom and think about getting the Phantom II.
It is quite rare, but is someone out who did the change from one to the other?
When yes, may I ask, what do you think about the sonic differences. Some say there are none but I think from technical paper there are...

Thanks

How do I know all this some may ask?

Huh, the mother of all questions... :-)

Unless I've omitted something, the transition from the Phantom I to the Phantom II is as follows:

new bearing cap
new magnet
titanium wand
micropoise

Each of these upgrades, with the exception of the latest - the micropoise, can be done just by purchasing the new part from Bob. With those upgrades, I don't think one can distinguish between an upgraded II and a new factory II, other than to insist there is a mystical difference.

although off-topic, what phono cables are you guys using with the phantom I or II arms ?
is right angle din to rca needed or just the straight din to rca ?

Many thanks...
