Hi Deronarm, my friend who has two tables.
Verdier with the REED/My Sonic combo, second table being the TW AC with a Shroeder Ref/Olympos combo I find the sound at his place actually to be more similar than different with these two set-ups so that's od with your thoughts above.
Can you elaborate a little more on the differences sonically you hear, I was all set in getting the Olympos but held off mainly because of this.
When listening to my friends set-up I always enjoy either, actually prefered the S/O combo slightly but due to the arm set-up apparently not being the easiest to deal with etc. and to get a Olympos cart not the easiest either I went for the REED/MSL combo direction and I'm very content.
I recently heard a A90 not but paired up with either associated table and/or arm but with the same speakers, amps and pre with phono as mine and really enjoyed it.
I haven't heard the XV-1t but owned the latest XV-1s cart which I just sold, I had it paired up with a Graham Phantom MK2 arm.
Hi Audioblazer, thanks for the input.
I'm really looking for something to compete with my other set-up, sonically a alternative sound but not sacrafice anything.
I suppose my biggest down side is not knowing what this arm sounds like in combination with any cart or actually at all because I have never heard one. I was going to mount my XV-1s cart but then it sold so I didn't, I had previously already made up my mind to sell it after hearing my friends set-up many times and preferred either the Olympos or MSL cart combos at his place.
