Suggestions for arm to replace VPI 12.7

I am thinking about replacing the 12.7 tonearm om my VPI Classic 3 turntable. My budget will be about $4000, and I'm willing to buy used. Does anyone who has replaced a VPI 10" or 12" tonearm have any advice regarding a compatible replacement?

I'd love to know how the 3d is compared to a Graham (I know-read the review but tough to get an honest vpi review with the dollars they spend advertising-even MF didn't knock the MDF $30k DD TT)). Does anyone know if you can easilly replace a 10.0 with a new 3d w/o redoing armboards? I would do that in a heart beat. I have a hopped up VPI tnt jr with 10.0 jmw.

Stringreen, did you need to redrill mounting holes for the arm or is the geometry the same as the VPI non-3D arms?
