Graham Phantom ArmWand ?

Appreciate any help with wands for the Phantom I. I assume I have the Phantom I because it appears the II had the VTA Level and mine doen't. I own two wands and the one I bought used can not hold a candle to the one that came with the tonearm. For that matter I can not get the 2nd one to image at all....maybe that was why the seller sold it. They appear the same but one does weigh more. Anyway to my question...I want to buy another 2nd wand and am confused. From what I have read there is the aluminum wand that I think was on the earlier tonearms, then there is the the ceramic one that I assume is what came with my Phantom I, and now I see there is a titanium wand that comes with the Phantom II.

Will the titanium wand work with my tonearm? And I would assume it sounds as good or better than my ceramic one?

I now own 2 cartridges and have the need for the 2nd wand and want to move on past the 2nd ill sounding one I now own.

Thank you for your thoughts.

I would call Bob or the distributor for advice. I do think the titanium wand should work well with Phantom I. I have Phantom II. One of the upgrades from I to II is the titanium arm wand.

I suggest you Email Bob Graham with your questions.
He may take a little while to answer?

I have been through the (email or call Bob) thing and was hoping you folks could offer advice. Will speak with a disti of choice then.

Thanks for your time.

Try Arturo at Axiss Audio at either axissusa@earthlink.net or info@axissaudio.com. When I had some issues correctly accomodating a Phantom Mkii with 10" Ti arm wand on my TNT mkIV, Bob always cc'd Arturo and Axiss on our e-mail exchanges. I believe they are his US ditributor.

Best.
