Best Entry Tonearm for Oracle V
Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has any feedback for the best entry level tonarm for $1000 for an Oracle V I am about to order. The Origin Live Silver and the VPI JMW 9 arms seem to be two great arms.... I have never had a unipivot arm though and don't know if the tonarm wire junction box on the JMW would be too far from the tonearm board on the Oracle plinth a few inches down-thus pulling at the wire-and suspension (assuming I understand this correctly). Also, I understand the unipivot such as the JMW has a different sonic sig than, say the OL Silver. Anyhow, any feedback and suggestions is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike
