Best Tonearm match for ZYX Airy 1000X

Match it with the Illustrious and reduce me to envy! :-)

It works and sounds very good with the Graham Arm

Hello Bill,

give the Illustrious Signature a chance. You will be astonished. No doubt that it is the best solution compared to the Graham.

I owned a R100 ZYX cartridge for several years. Which was an excellent cartridge sonically. For years I used AirTangent's top-of-the-line tonearm with excellent results. But, for significantly less money, the ZYX sounded even better (just as lively in midrange, more of and more tuneful bass, more high freq extension, even more effortless transitions and--oh so realistic--in macro dynamics) when I used the Basis Vector tonearm. Due to this happy combination, I sold my AirTangent. Thus, I endorse the use of the Vector for your ZYX requirement.

Regarding your comment about tweaking if using a linear tracker. I can only speak about 2 models of AirTangent arms which I owned for over 10 years. These required no tweaking and almost no maintenance. They were a joy to own and use. But, as the Vector performs as well or better for significantly less $$$, what is the poiint of going this direction?

I have just returned from Applause Audio here in Toronto. Rob has Graham, SME, Origin Live, Rega and other arms in his store. He seams to love the RS Labs Uni-pivot arm best. It is also less expensive than most of the others.

Does anyone have any info on this arm?.
