How about an OL Illustrious or Signature? Not as pretty as any of those others I'll admit, but its sonics should be exactly what you're after. I have the relatively lowly Silver, with Twl's mod. It seems quite neutral and a wonderful match for my Shelter 901. The higher OL arms have better quality wire, higher spec bearings and better armtubes. I think they'd do it.
Schroeder versus Tri-Planar
I've got a Graham 2.2 and I love it, but I'd also love to try a truly high-quality gimbaled arm. I'm curious whether there are people who have heard the Schroeder Model 1 and the Tri-Planar Model VII. The reviews on each are superb.
However Chris Brady on the Teres site describes the Tri-Planar as a bit bright and analytical - qualities I hate in audio equipment. He also describes the Schroeder as loose in the bass - not a good thing either, though he hypothesizes that the wood arm wands might alleviate that problem.
any experiences folks? Patrick
