Grado Signature Tonearm


(My first post at Audiogon)

I have this arm, working with a VPI MKII table. I had an interesting chat with someone at Joseph Grado, who gave me the history of the arm. I am considering selling it (and the table), and I want to get your reaction if it came on the market. Would it be "who cares, better ones out there!", or something more positive?

Thanks.

I had the same combination for many years. In fact, I went through two Grado arms, but their performance was bested by both a Technics EPA-100 and my current Morch DP-6. The Mark II iteration of the TT has been upgraded to a SAMA and all TNT parts to make it a Mark IV with everything. I sold both Grado arms in the Frogman's quoted price range. $900 is out of the question, as some of the Origin arms outperform the Grados in that higher price range. The Morch is much better, and they can be had used for $600 to $900.
