The Funk Firm is the successor to Pink Triangle. Perhaps you should consider Funk's FX-R tonearm? In any case, a call to Funk might be worthwhile to ask for their suggestions about what arms work well on the old PT.

If you have an SMEV, the only alternative I can thing about is the Zeta. I can not say it is better than the SME, but sounds fantastic with the Pink Triangle. I still remember the sound of this combo - dynamic and alive. Unhappily some early Zeta tonearms has problems with the bearings that could result in mistracking. |
Thanks for that. I actually have an SME V on it now and was looking for an alternative so thanks for the other suggestion. Yes, the leveling is time consuming and I am not sure it is right yet!! I am also having some issues with the tone arm clearance from the record if the vinyl is even slightly warped, especially on the last few tracks- it touches on the records circumference. The VTA adjuster seems to be dialed up so can't seem to raise it any further. Suggestions? |
