On my vector arm there is a small acrylic block where the tonearm wires intersect/become the larger shielded leads to the phono amp. The prescribed method of attaching this block to the table is to use the supplied velcro strips so that the whole assembly does not hang from the delicate tonearm wires. Maybe this method has been changed by Basis?
Well Tempered or Teres .....
After much deliberation, I have narrowed my choices down to either the Well Tempered Classic (used, round motor) or the Teres.
My preferences for my new table are a black background as silent as possible, and dynamics along with musicality.
My thoughts on arms for the Teres --- well Just like eating an elephant, one bite at a time, but maybe ET2 or Clearaudio Unify, but I will probably start with a modded Rega 250 in order to put some monies into the 300B amp fund.
I listen to a variety of music: Blues, Classic Rock, Alternative, Female vocals, piano. (not in any particular order.)
As Far as the Teres models, I am leaning toward the Teres with the cocobolo base, because I know that if I went with the acrylic base I would always kick myself for not waiting for the Cocobolo model.
So.....
Input is appreciated as to thoughts between the WT & the Teres cocobolo base table,and of course the facts and reasons behind those thoughts.
Just for kicks, how about the same question regarding the acrylic base Teres and the WT.
Thanks for the input.
