Hi, first time Post, here goes. I purchased a Luxman pd-441 from usual place ,ebay waiting for delivery, but it does not include a tone arm or cartridge or arm board. I have a Hana SH cartridge I bought after seeing lots of good press on it, probably should have got the sl mc but I have 3 phono pre amps, a Rega mm, a Music Hall mc/mm and a Vincent 701 tube 2 box mm/mc. Along with Marantz 7702 pre amp processor, and Crown CS 8200 , Carver/Subfure 2 ch amp, & B&K signature 200.7 and 4250 amps with Martin Logan ReQuest, CLS II and Summit 'stats. Need advice on choosing a Tonarm for the DD pd-441? My budget is $500, but could spend more if there was a unicorn that was such a good to match. Seen SME and FR-54/64 advertised, and found a link for Italian Arm Bosrd maker for a variety of collars . Graham looks interesting, but seem in the $5000 what about linear tracking arms? I thought they made sense, but have been mostly a digital music collector. Found a neighbor with a collection of lps he needed to frt rid of, so I became a vinyl collector.
Borrowed a Pro-Ject debt carbon from friends, have owned Tecnics and have a Gerard 301 in storage, but the Gerard looks like a changer, in a deep plinth eith a rats next of wires, no plug, like it came out of a console. Also have a old Dual needs work, what project should I concentrate on? I appreciate the community, and have knowledge building engines for Drag Raving along with computer building and ripping bluray and said & cds to my computer. I use driver and Make MKV daily. Love Atmos and projection movies, let me know if I can share my knowledge.
