Here is an Analog Planet piece with links to several files comparing different SAT arms, if that helps at all. For deep pockets only. I couldn't get the files to play, but I am on a simple laptop at the moment. I hope it works for anyone interested. If you don't hear any difference, what conclusion would you draw?
Comparison of sonic qualities of some tonearms
I’m relatively new to the world of vinyl, listening seriously for probably only 2 years. Of course, many big picture items (e.g. turntable, phono stage, cartridges) are discussed extensively on this forum, but I haven’t seen much discussion comparing different tonearms. I would be interested to hear about different people’s experiences with different tonearms, mentioning the audible advantages and disadvantages of each tonearm, realizing that there is no perfect sound, although from what I read about others’ experiences, SAT tonearms may come closest, albeit at a very high price.
