TW Acustic 10.5 and Graham Phantom Supreme II


I am contemplating (figuring out my funds!) on purchasing a TW Acustic Raven AC. First of all, if anyone is around the Tulsa, OK area and owns a TW Acustic Raven AC, please invite me over to listen!

My question to Raven AC owners who have tried both a Graham Phantom and TW 10.5 tonearm - what are the sonic attributes of each tonearm on the Raven AC? Which did you prefer and why? This isn't a 'which is best' question, but rather which one suited you more with the Raven AC compared to the other.

For background, I listen to about 60% rock/pop and 40% traditonal jazz. Very little classical. I use a Rowland Cadence phono pre.

Thanks in advance for any info and comments.

Thanks for your response Ebm. That's the type of info and experiences I'm wanting to hear. Since all these products are hard to audition, especially in one's own system, Audiogon is a great place to get other's opinion and experiences.
Well, gotta be optimistic! But not Tulsa optimistic that's for sure. Maybe I should rephrase the question: 'Those with a Raven AC that has tried both Graham Phantom in any version compared to a TW 10.5."

Didnt realize the Phantom Supreme II was that new to have only had a handful shipped. I have had one private email response of someone who has owned or demoed both, but certainly open to other's experiences if they are out there.
I've also been looking for info on comparative listening impressions among a few highly regarded arms such as the Phantom 2 and Reed, teamed up with any Raven, preferably the One. I prefer a bit more of an up front but not aggressive presentation as opposed to one that places the soundstage well behind the speakers and contributes to making instruments sound relatively more distant, smaller and uninvoving. The cartridges I would be using are either the Dynavector XV-1S or Benz Ebony LP (now superseded by the LP-S).
Opus, I have Raven 1 with the new power supply, and phantom II arm with an LP-S. The sound is sublime and wonderful, very detailed, timbrally accurate, quiet, providing a beautifully wide and deep stage, and superb timing. I haven't heard anything better than what i am hearing now out of my system.

You can't go wrong with either arm. Both great with the XV1s.

Philb7777,

You need to know what cartridge.

The Phantom is a unipivot compared to The TW which is a 10.5 inch gimballed arm. Very different designs.
