Well Tempered Signature turntable and arm
An old thread but one comment needs to be corrected, because two statements there are completly wrong: Vicdamone wrote: The carbon Well Tempered arms were sand filled which made them slightly heavier than the metal arms. There are various arm to... 
Micro Seiki MA707 vs CF-1
The answer of @clio09 is wrong: The Micro Seiki CF-1 tonearm is identical with the Micro Seiki MA-701: https://www.hifi-wiki.de/index.php/Micro_Seiki_MA-701 None have a sliding weight on the front armtube (carbon fiber) nor do they have markings!... 
Has anyone compared the EMT 139st phonostage to others ?
What would that result in an increase gain of 10x ? It is a normal series connection, it increases the input impedance!    
Has anyone compared the EMT 139st phonostage to others ?

ZYX Fuji vs. Lyra Helicon

ZYX Fuji vs. Lyra Helicon
