MG-1 Air Bearing Tonearm? Anyone experience it?


This tonearm perked my interest because of its relatively low price, considering it's an air-bearing arm. Does anyone have experience with this arm? I have an OL Silver right now, and am curious if this would offer improvements. Has anyone else tried it?

Well, I took the plunge and purchased this thing - my curiosity got the better of me. I don't have any experience with a tonearm like this, so fingers crossed I can get it up and running OK. I'll report my findings.
let us know your results, I have been thinking the same thoughts about that arm.
I am thinking of ordering one, too, once your findings are posted as I require a new tonearm.
Hi Guys:
I get the tonearm on Friday, so will try and set it up then. Challenge may be getting the armboard/seating correct, as I'm sure my Teres armboard won't do the trick - will likely need to work out the right fitting for the table, which may take some time. I welcome any advice/recommendation on the right setup of the arm for a Teres. I'll post my findings as soon as I can. Bear in mind though that I'm not a critical or experienced reviewer like some on A'gon. I will do my best to share what I hear though. Key comparison will be with my OL Silver which has served me very well so far. I think comparison will be interesting.. I also have three cartridges to compare - A new Denon DL103 with about just 1 hour on it, a Shelter 501mk2 with about 75 hours on it (but the cartridge is misaligned - I bumped into it a couple of weeks ago - still seems to play great music though) and finally the piece de resistance - a ZYX Airy 3x-sb low output cartridge. This arrives in about a week, and should offer crazy good sound, if all is set up correctly. Turntable is Teres 255 with latest clamp, battery upgrades and battery power. Finally, I've a new stand on the way - a custom Adona rack with oversize turntable shelf. A lot of variables which will impact the sound - hopefully all for the better though :-)
Well, I received the tonearm yesterday. The packaging was excellent, and the build quality of the tonearm seems top notch. I haven't managed to install it yet, as it looks like I'll need some type of custom amrboard to support it, which is a shame - was hoping my Teres 255 armboard could be leveraged (hopefully it still can, if I can figure it out). I'm a little unsure of next steps because whatever arm support I use will need to allow for space for the output cabling and the airflow. Anyway, will see can I work it out. one option would be to use the existing teres armboard, but add an additional buffer of wood to the bottom of the armboard, drill an appropriately sized hole in that, and then tighten. I guess it might work - still allowing clearance for the airflow and output cabling will also be a challenge. Oh well, I'll see can I figure it out. Will update soon,
John.
