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.

I owned the Simon Yorke S9 and once mounted a Pertinax wand Schroeder Reference to it. In my opinion, the original tonearm gives a better match, provided you use better cables for the Simon Yorke tonearm. I used a solid core cabling mounted at the outside of the tonearm wand of the Simon Yorke tonearm going in one run from cartridge to preamp.
