Teres 340, anyone heard / seen one in the flesh

Thank you all.

I have just sent in my deposit cheque.

Chris told me of the new Schroder DPS arm. This is identical? to the reference, but without the VTA adjustment or the counterweight. So guess what?, Chris has a VTA adjuster, and we can order the Reference counterweight.

You are in for a treat. Enjoy!

Hi Cousin,
.
Glad you made the decision to take the plunge to order a Teres 340-2.
.
I am quite convinced that you will look back and feel it was one of your best audio choices you have made.
.
I continue to be delighted and surprised what this table can do and the detail, musicality, black background, and sound staging it puts forth.
.
Do let us all know when yours is up and running and how you like it.
.
Hope you get the Schroder. What cartridge are you thinking of getting to match up with it ?
.
Best Regards, Larry

I have a ZYX 1000 Airy.

I am thinking of a Koetsu for the second?.

Hi Bill,
.
I love the Koetsu Rosewood Signature Platinum on my Graham 2.2. I did get to listen to my RSP on a Chris' Schroeder Reference and it was just heavenly. The Schroder / RSP combo was far and away more magical than my RSP / Graham set up. The Schroder Reference is anyone's dream arm IMHO. It taught me that a great tonearm makes an enormous difference.
.
Your decision to get the Schroder is a great way to go. I think that the cartridge decision will depend a lot on your taste in sound. The Airy should have a lot more detail and the RSP should be more musical and lush.
.
I would suggest getting the Schroeder Reference (as you plan to do), listen to the Airy on the Schroder for a couple of months and then make the decision whether or not to get the Koetsu after listening to the Schroeder / Airy combo.
.
If you want more musicality at the expense of some detail go for the RSP. If you are content with the amount of detail you get from the Airy (and don't want to give any of it up) and you don't feel the need for more ease, musicality and lushness, stay with the Airy.
.
I plan on auditioning an Airy on my Graham when I can get it organized. I have heard a lot of high praise for the Airy from some discerning friends with great ears.
.

Give me a call if you want to discuss this some more.
