Has anyone had experience with the Schroeder Arm


In a high res setup has anyone been able to compare this arm to the top pivoting competition.I think that the fact that the pivot is magnetic as opposedto a bearing like a unipivot(needing damping) should on paper be less resonant and maybe sound better.I currently own,and,am happy with a Graham 2.2,but the idea of a true frictionless bearing (all bearings have some degree of friction)really could make a real difference in a good setup.I'm not interested at the moment in straight line trackers with air bearings (although I love some of them)due to the hassle of external pumps and tubing runs.

Raul,

I only need the first 3 seconds to know the different when upgrading my Valhalla with Emperor. For about 3 songs,i know at least 90% the character of Emperor.

Arm is the most "sensitive" thing in analog !!
If you can't hear their character within 1 hours,you really need to see a doctor !

What took you so long? Better check you ears and your mind dude !!
Raul,counting people thread without looking the activation date is meaningless.

Mine is 112 (Aug 2001) and yours is 52 (April 2004)??

Looking people thread to show how stupid they are and how smart your are is showed your real attitude.
Raul,

Since you have never asked,you are the king.
I respect your input,but not your attitude which is attacking/questioning Doug's answers.

Again this is the original question:

~In a high res setup has anyone been able to "COMPARE" this arm to the top pivoting competition.~

Doug had been directly comparing them side by side and this is the main point,it doesn't matter he is right or wrong according to you,me,or others.

Have you compared them directly side by side?

I'm definately lacked experienced with analog matching,set-up,etc,but it doesn't make me blind to hear each of their differences and characters.

I'll always learn,how about you?
