Opinions on the Dynavector DV507MKII


Got plenty of good feedback on my super platter questions; so here's another point to ponder. Anyone have experience with the Dynavector DV507MKII tonearm on an Aries 3? My shop favors this tonearm for the Aries. I've auditioned this setup in the store and it definitely sounded better than my current Scout...

I'm currently using that setup the Dynavector DV 507MKII, Dynavector Te Kaitora Rua cartridge & the Aries 3, I love it. It's a perfect setup with a "AWESOME" sound. Everything about this setup is good it's by far the best addition I added to my system. Lets not forget the two of them together look like fine piece of artwork.

I also added the SDS, Mini Super Feet, Center Weight & Periphery Ring. I went further to change the phono cable that comes with the Dynavector tomearm. I'm using the Synergistic Research Tricon Analog phono cable, that was the icing on the cake.

Stickman451, do you live in GA? My reason for asking my local dealer has the same Dynavector & VPI setup you audition in the store just curious.
Never used it on an Aries but it's a great tonearm.

It should sound better than a Scout. Comparing it to a JMW-9 is akin to comparing a Lexus to a Yugo.
Jmo,

That's too funny. Mike was just telling me last week about your cartridge install and how much he liked it. He personally likes the Te Kaitora Rua better than the 'top of the line' XV-1.

Have you tried the super platter? I am thinking of adding it with the purchase; later I will add the SDS, the Ring, and maybe a Gingko. What does your Aries sit on?

thx
