Trans-fi Terminator T3PRO opinions please...

Can't say enough good things about this tonearm. It is a little tricky adjusting it as mentioned but we'll worth it!

To add to my hurried response yesterday. Placing a record on the platter requires a bit of fineness as the arm structure remains over the platter. Not difficult, but you do need to exercise some caution. An air pump in another room is needed as I've never been able to sonically isolate one in the room. only a very small hole is needed to pass the airline tubing so that is easily accomplished. I have my pump plugged into a remotely powered power strip that also turns on two more strips that my gear is plugged int. One switch controls three strips, one of which is in another room. I sprung for the digital VTA readout but rarely use it. This is not a truly set it and forget it arm but the tweaks are simple and not a pain. Initial set-up is a little challenging but so are most arms. The sounds coming off the record speak for themselves. They just explode off in a way most pivoted arms seem to lack until you spend many times more. What have you got to lose? The used market will get you most of your money back I'm sure.

Agreed. My Terminator is playing right now with 0.09 psi showing on the electronic pressure gauge installed inline. Working perfectly. I don't know about the need for a higher pressure or flow pump than the Rena 400 I am using. I do have each of the 2 outlets plumbed into the surge tank with one airline of different length as the other to help smooth out the pulsations. Can't hear a difference but it can't hurt.
