Schroeder vs. Triplanar VII Sonic Differences

All,

I have read a lot of threads regarding the "superiortiy" of these tonearms in the right combinations of tables and catridges. However, there doesn't seem to be a lot said about the soncic characteristics of each brand and the differences between them. I'm interested in hearing your thoughts about their strengths and weaknesses, sonci characteristics, applicability to various types of music (rock, pop, classical, large scale, small scale, etc).

Will a Schroeder deliver dynamics, punch, bass suited to Rock music? Will a Triplanar deliver natural, timbral accuracy? Are both these arms suited to the same music?

Thanks in advance,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

if you can afford go for the Kuzma Airline,
as this arm brings the ZYX Universe to another
level, compared to Schroeder,TriPlanar,Graham Phantom etc.
I know what I say as I have mounted these arm on
the Raven AC TT, and I do posses them all.

Hi sirspeedy,
well as my first Kuzma Airline is around 1 Year old
now and I do not have any Problem with it at all
last december I bought the second one. As I was
very satisfied with it operation and mounting of cartridges.
As Thomas Heisig was happy with the Triplanar I acquired this year the marvelous Triplanar from Sorasound and I am very happy dealing with Mehran , which I am driving
with the Transfiguration Orpheus. Sonically the Triplanar
is very good.
