Whats the best $1500 tonearm for a Teres


Doesn't have to be new but must mate well with a Benz Micro Ebony L. I know Teres' website point to Moerch as being a top tier. Origin Live is also listed, But what other arms are Teres owners using or have used in this price range.

One more question. Does the Benz cart mate well with Teres TT?

FWIW I know this TT is worthy of more but my budget is already stretched. Thanks.

As Syntax said, mating between cartridge and table is not a significant concern. Neither is mating between tonearm and table, at least not with a table like yours (able to fit nearly any tonearm, no suspension to be thrown out of balance).

I don't have enough experience with your Micro Ebony L to offer suggestions, but I also agree with Syntax that the Benz's I have heard all behaved themselves no matter what arm they were on. Not all cartridges are so forgiving, so you're lucky in this respect.

An arm you feel comfortable setting up and adjusting will probably end up being better adjusted than one you find difficult to understand or intimidating. Study the pictures. Find the manuals online and read about how the arm works. Try to imagine yourself setting it up and working with it every day. This will help you make a decision that works for you.
Artemus_5,

For clarity, did you move the tonearm from your MMF-7 to the Scoutmaster? Or did you use the Goldring Elite on a VPI JMW arm? Curious as to why you had that problem...
