TW-Acustic Arm


TW-Acustic has a beautiful looking arm. Does anyone know what it sounds like?

That is interesting considering Thomas hated the sound of the A90 at RMAF.

maybe a setup issue back then or the greatness of the TW arm ?
How can anyone openly criticise any particular product if one has not heard it.

Nobody is putting a gun to anyone's head to buy a TW tonearm or any other product. Whether or not it is good value is up to the potential purchaser to decide.

Personally it seems expensive, as it is more costly than say the excellent Phantom. However if it outperforms a Phantom it would be seen to be good value - no ?. It is certainly cheaper than the audio jewellery Da Vinci tonearms.

At least we have actual TW owners or interested owners sharing their excitment of a new product.

The attitude of some of our nice German collegues reeks of petty jealousy from my viewpoint.

cheers
Hi Detoham

TW has not activated any type of support from me. I just got a bit sick and tired of you and your fellow German cronies bitcthing and moaning over something you have not seen in the flesh, yet alone heard.

I have no intention currently to buy a TW tonearm, let alone have the opportunity to listen to one way down in Sydney. As I mentioned it is expensive and will need to be judged against other tonearms.

How does your 11k Davinci tonearm that you are selling rate for design issues and price tag?

I own a TW Raven turntable - WOW, big deal. It is a great sounding table no matter what you say.
I have also recently bought vintage Exclusive P10 & P3 turntables, for a lot less money than my Raven - so what - they are also very nice sounding. Am I now promoting Pioneer?

BTW, Can you please film a M Fremer type of video with detailed steps on how to correctly set up a Graham Phantom, as you clearly are the global expert. I am a mere consumer and music lover.
I am serious, as it would be good to learn more. You can then post on audiogon for the benefit of all of us.

How bout putting your big mouth to work now?

Me, I would luv to hear your new turntable that is 4-5 times more expensive than Black Knight - heck hopefully you will even sell one.
No problems Dertonarm. I'll let Dgad fend for himself, he is more than capable :-)

We are all here hopefully for our enjoyment of music first, and hifi as a vechicle for that enjoyment.

You are correct, the P3 & P10 are a steal and clearly show the Japanese, when they put all their considerable engineering expertise into something, the product can and is world class - even 30 years later.
They are a wonderful alternative sound to my Raven and the in built suspension isolates from any footfall etc.

Do you have any photo's, links to your previous turntable. I am sure everyone here would be interested in seeing them before your new table.

If I can make Munich, it would be wonderful.

so far you get the best quote on this now comedy thread :>)

"So long as you point one at derblowhard as well.

But he and his flight attendant, syntax, get extra frequent flyer miles for chutzpah.

Now boarding, the Humility Express. Non-stop to Munich."

I have not laughed so much in quite a while. have a laugh at this Aussie comedy classik

Oh boy those German web sites must be a hoot!!
I would disagree Darren.

My A90 sounded wonderful straight from the box and only got better.

is there a new Titan i?. is it called the i2?

Should have known you would have jumped on that staement from Dgad :-)

How was the Munich Show? anything that jumped out sound quality wise?
