Experience w/ Trans-Fi Auio Terminator Tone Arm?

How many of you have the Trans-Fi Auio Terminator Air Bearing linear Tone Arm? Or the older Trans-Fi Evolution Tonearm. What is your experience with this arm, how satisfied are you with this arm, and how does it compare with other tonearms you have tried?

I am seriously thinking of getting the Terminator for my VPI Super Scoutmaster with Rim Drive, but have no experience with linear tone arms. I have found just one person on Audiogon who has this arm and loves it. This fact is somewhat confusing to me, since if the arm is so great, as some people say it is, you would think more people on Audiogon would have it or at least tried it out.
Thanks,
jbcello

Yes.

The Terminator Pro with the Tomahawk arm wand sounds better than any other air bearing arm I have ever heard including the Rockport III.

I think its the knife edge bearing now accomplished with a set of points.

The soundstage is impressively focused. Timbral accuracy is improved, and there is meat and potato vs sterile accuracy in the music.

YMMV but the TPro with the Tomahawk arm is one of the finest arms ever at any cost.
