Six months ago I asked my local dealer for an opinion and pricing for both this new Sumiko and the Dynavector XV-1s. I never heard from him. A couple of weeks later, I saw a great deal on a new Airtight PC-1 here on Audiogon. I bought it instead, aligned it using a custom Mint LP protractor and could not be happier. I still haven't read anything about the Sumiko, but I read that Fremer will review it in Stereophile in fairly short order.
