Both are excellent tonearms. In a sense you could say that the Reed is a copy of the triplanar, with many added tweaks that are not present on a Triplanar. That’s a general statement about the Reed product line. It may not include the 1H, because I have never used one of those. I do own a 2A, and I find it to be quite comparable to my Triplanar. Mine has the red cedar arm wand which gives it a slightly lower effective mass. Compared to some of the other woods that are available. I think you can’t go wrong either way.
Reed 1H vs Tri-Planar VII U2 tonearms....
Just wondering if anyone has any experience with these two arms. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
