Opinions on the Dynavector DV507MKII

Yes, I agree. I've seen the ring in action at the shop and it definitely flattens out the record completly; makes life much easier for the arm and cartridge...saving my $$$ now for the addition of the ring and the SDS...

Yes; I live in Ga. I use Audio Alternative (Mike Burns)

Jmo,

That's too funny. Mike was just telling me last week about your cartridge install and how much he liked it. He personally likes the Te Kaitora Rua better than the 'top of the line' XV-1.

Have you tried the super platter? I am thinking of adding it with the purchase; later I will add the SDS, the Ring, and maybe a Gingko. What does your Aries sit on?

thx

Well Mr. Audiofeil,

It's time to trade-in the Yugo for that Lexas!!! Placing my order ASAP...

The Aries 3 has been ordered along with the DV 507 MKII! Can hardly wait to get it!!!

For the short term I will use the Dynavector DV-20XL off of my Scout. I just got the Scout in January, but I knew after about the first 20 seconds of The Beatles Love album that I would have to move up ASAP! I hadn't really listened to vinyl over the last 20 years; what a mistake that has been!!!

The Scout sounds really good in my rig, but it ain't no Aries 3! The dealer here in Atlanta was nice enough to work a very fair trade-in deal so the Scout goes back. I have my eye on the Dynavector Te Kaitora Rua; Jmo (above) and others have told me that they actually like it better on the Aries than the DV DRT-XV1. Once I get my monies worth out of the 20XL (and my pocketbook recovers) I hope to go for the Rua. In the meantime I am chomping at the bit to add the outer ring and the SDS. I am also looking at the MapleShade Samson v.2 racks; they look very promising. Can't have it all now, but I have an awesome start with the Aries 3 and it's only going to get better!!!
