Cartridge recommendations for TW Acustic 10.5 arm.

Yes, the EAR 88PB phono preamp, with 72 db gain indicated, and this is conservative.

The Miyajima Kansui was used on the TW 10.5 at this years RMAF. I listened to it a lot that weekend and thought is sounded great. It tracked everything they threw at it without a problem, and it did so without much surface noise, at least all the records sounded squeaky clean. Extensions on both ends were very good. Bass was tight and full. Great midrange, voices were great.

Opus, have you changed your mind?

Chris,I'm pretty much sold on the Raven One, but am still trying to gather information and impressions on both arms, the Phantom 2 Supreme and the TW Acustic 10.5, along with synergistic cartridge matches before reaching my decision.

Got you Jeff. You don't have to decide until you are ready. I suspect that whatever way you go will bring you pleasure.
