You should look into replacing the bearing with the newest one from Graham. It came out a few months ago for $250 and I believe that it will fit your arm. It is very simple to do and you will be amazed at the improvement. I just purchased a new Phantom B-44 this past June and a few weeks ago upgraded to this new bearing. You will hear a noticible improvement in detail and base performance.
Compliments to Graham
I just added the 2.2 deluxe by graham to an already excellent system, and was startled at how much better it got. I always knew that there was room for improvement but didn't expect it to be this good. My tt VPI tnt with the outer peripheral ring and a Sumiko blackbird. Phono is the E.A.R. 834p, with some mods, the amps Simaudio p-5 and w-5, speakers the incredibly good Merlins.
I can't stress enough how real the music sounds now especially with the lp: "Jazz at a pawnshop."
The arm I replaced was the clearaudio satisfy.
Would like to hear other a-goners experience with their analog rig and would like to hear suggestions.
Just purchased the cardas golden reference din to rca cable, can't wait to hear it being shipped now.
