The TW Arm is brilliant. Simple, elegant, competently engineered. The TW table is also nice--I spent many hours listening to a friends TOTL Raven with the 10.5 arm. If you are at all interested in a different drive system, check out the Sempersonus TE-2. I'm using a 12" TW arm with this table and it really sings. The TE-2 uses an inner rim drive system that is fantastic--quiet, stable, reliable. The combination has the drive and PRaT of an idler with the detail retrieval of a great belt drive like the Raven.
New turntable: TW or Obama?
About to take the plunge on a table to replace my venerable SOTA Star/SME V.
Top contenders: TW Acustic Raven LS or a Kuzma Stabi R with wood base. Arm options are the TW 10.5 on the former, or something else. Would likely get the Kuzma 4 point for the latter.
Anyone with experience and an opinion on these analog tables?
Cost wise they are similar, both under $20K.
Thanks!
