12 inch Graham Phantom


Anyone compared this to the 9" or 10" arm tube?

Thanks

Syntax - did you recall why CD was such an instant success back in teh early 1980ies?
2 strong points going with it which told/tell a lot about the vast majority: - remote control AND plug'n'play (NO adjustments.... CD-tweaks came later...).
I guess we should just settle with the one difference which is apparent to all and restrict ourself to the simple omnipresent economic law of our time: - new= better, bigger=better, more expensive=better, more press-presence=better, "read it somewhere"=better, longer=better. It gives a nice comfortable feel to break complex issues down to the very simple facts of life. All a sudden it is so easy.
Derto: I can not engage anyone here on what you all are talking about on the arm lengths, set-up intracacies, et al - I really don't have the requisite experience. I listen, hope to learn a tad more here and there, but mostly I am just glad that my Graham arm is as easy as it is.

On my last post: I just wanted to try and help someone recall where they might have read something, nothing more.

As for the efficacy of published reviewing, I was a TAS reviewer many life times ago, so, please, trust me, no one understands its regressive nature more that I. That's why I parachuted out; it got in the way of the Music.

But I still read it because I like all of the pretty, pretty, pretty pictures...

And, basically, because I now accept it for what it is (i.e. a symptom of, what would be between us, a larger discussion).
Syntax,

I am not sure if I can trust you on the length difference. Maybe you doped the pictures. I will have to verify this one myself soon.

Huh, this is a very serious question. Give me some time to think about it. Two or three days?
But wait, I can ask my wife. (Yeah, I know, no real Audiophile will do that, but ...)
...the said the real man wants to have the feeling of being the master and the REMOTE (especially when they are made from metal, 3 lbs+) has the most important features: Start + Stop
Probably I can give you a better answer.
In 2 or 3 days...or a week?
