Dynavector 505 to replace modded Incognito RB300.

Hi I'm thinking of versatility and adjustability that at some point can be more beneficial for proper analogue set up versis the rigidity of RB300. Obviously the Dynavector arm is at much higher price point. Will the upgrade be worthy after all? I will than plan than to use armtube mount cartridges oppose to headshell mount.

While the Incognito Rega RB300 is an excellent arm, it's not in the same league as the DV505. IMHO a major upgrade.

Czarivey...also ask your dealer about different springs for the Gyrodec. This arm is pretty heavy, as Lewm noted. I'm pretty sure you will need to replace them with the appropriate ones.

Czarivey...one of my tables happens to be an Oracle Delphi
MKIV with a Zeta (van den hul) arm, which is pretty heavy.
I had to replace the springs on that table. Oracle makes
several different springs that are color coded and has a
list that lets you know which ones to use. I would really
recommend either talking to your dealer or send Michell an
e-mail and inquire. Lewm is right.

According to the Vinyl Engine the DV505 weighs 1250g.
