Mc Anna , Graham Phantom Tonearm & TW AC3 SYNERGY

Hi everyone ,

Im currently thinking about these combination for my next upgrade pretty soon.
I have not heard yet this wonderful things and maybe you guys can share your thoughts and experiences with this idea of mine.

I have now the Mc Anna and about to pay for a used TW AC3 TT without arm.

My sincere thanks for all your suggestions.

Hello Syntax,

"the Graham show very fast its weak points, the soft sounding Kuzma hides much more"

Please, will you say more about the Kuzma 4 PT being "soft"? What is your reference system? What arm and cartridge do you prefer?

I have a Technics SP10 MkII in panzerholz and want to upgrade from my Acos Lustre ST-801 to either the SME V-12 or the Kuzma 4 PT.

Thank you in advance for sharing your experience.

Best Wishes,

David

TW 10.5 arm with Black Night arm board works wonderful on my Raven AC.

Dreamauduio, I can't help you with the Phantom/Raven combo but I would listen to Halcro on this one. BTW I have two arms, a Triplanar VII and a Raven 10.5 and they both work great on my Raven AC. Not trying to pursuade you from the Phantom but its nice to know there are other options.

One thing I would not do is slap three arms on the Raven. What does that accomplish? Makes for interesting pictures?

Good luck.

I second Tdaudio's comments. I use the latest version Triplanar and a Transfiguration Orpheus with my TW AC. If you want the best from this combo I encourage you to buy the SRA Platform Jeff Catalano of High Water Sound sells and uses under these tables or the Symposium Acoustic Quantum if your finances allow. The TW 10.5 Arm is superb too. If you have a true AC3 with 3 separate motors, you might want to consider TWs new 3 motor single box option. I bought mine just a few months ago and it is an incredible step forward from a single motor if that is what you are using. Call High Water Sound and talk to Jeff.

I also vote for the TW 10.5 arm. Great arm and synergy with TW tables.
