Is anyone in vinyl land familiar with ADC tonearms

Very low mass arm. Will require careful selection of cartridges. Then again, you probably already knew that. Other than that, i see nothing wrong with it and it is probably serving you well. May even be better than some highly respected arms if it allows VTA adjustment, etc... Can't remember the specifics about set-up on that one. Sean

Yeah, they built three, the ALT and the LMF 1&2 or 2&3, I can't quite remember without looking it up. Sold for 200 or so, the ALT being under 200, And actually thought they were some of the better values in arms at the time. You would hope they mated well with ADC cartridges, Sonus and the like and they did. Unless you just feel they need for spending a bunch of money and not getting a ton of improvement, I would stay with the status quo

Sean,Thanks for your response. Set up was quite easy and yes the VTA is adjustable. I have a Grado Platinum mounted on the arm. Sounded better than the Rega 250 origionaly on the table.

My Question is, are there any very high compliance cartridges out there any more? I am suprised that the Grado works in this arm, as they usually put alot of energy back into an arm without enough mass and tend to go nuts. I remember the days when I was in school and used an Infinity "Black Widow" arm with the ADC XLM and a Sonus Blue. I can't imagine finding a cartridge for that arm now. What is out there? Most MC are right out!

It is an LMF-2. And after looking at the box it is carbon fiber not graphite. Pretty heady stuff for a 15-20 year old arm. Being somewhat uniformed to this subject, what is a high compliance cartridge and what would some current examples be? Thanking you in advance.
