A few people I know w. Simon Yorke tables have tried different tonearms. They all ended up using the Yorke arm in the end. I didn't listen with them when they did the comparison, just letting you know what I was told. Raul just reinforces that opinion. The Schroeder is a great arm by all standards, but I wouldn't be surprised if you can spend your money better elsewhere. I have been told Simon Yorke himself is emphatic about using his own tonearms for his turntables. The tonearm isn't the most sophisticated design. There are air bearing & other types of tonearms with newer technology, but you will probably not benefit as much as you think. You are at the point of diminishing returns. Good luck.
Simon Yorke S9 with a Schroeder arm ???
Hello,
Has anyone any idea how a S9 would change with a schroeder dsp or refernce? As teh S9 is my first analog rigg since decades I don't know how good exactly the arm in itself is. I use the Simon Yorke with Jan Allaerts MC1B - pass lab phono - BAT 5i and VK 60's monoblock driving sonus faber amati homage.
i love the sound of the S9 with Allaerts but just wonder what that somehow genius contsracted arm woul do.
