Tonearm for VPI HW MkIII


Hi, I'm contemplating a step up from my current (very forgettable) tonearm. The choices are between an Origin Live modified RB300, ET2 (although I hear it's a realy pain in the upkeep department) and the JMW arm from VPI. Is the VPI arm really that much better than anything else in that price range? Thanks for the response

I have the VPI JMW Memorial Tonearm on my VPI mk4 turntable and Ilove it. I upgraded from an Audioquest PT6 arm, and it was the most significant upgrade that I have ever made [and I have made a lot of upgrades]. If you get one you will not regret it. It is a beautiful tonearm.
I traded in an Audioquest PT-6 tonearm when I got my VPI and ended up getting the VPI for $895. What a deal!
