Experience w/ Trans-Fi Auio Terminator Tone Arm?

It's about 4 months I am on the swimming pool edge and uncertain if plunge or not. From what I read this should be one of the best arm regardless price. I remember somebody stating it is better than even Grahams/SME etc etc.

Why I don't open the wallet yet? I am not that good in setting unknown things and a parallel tracker gives me the feeling that I will be in trouble in setting it. Reading instructions there was a note about the possibility of cartridge jumping or skipping while setting it up. This really scared me, although Vic indicated it is a possibility not a certainty.

Kristian, please I would love to read your feedback specifically about the setting it up.
Cheers everybody

Will do.

But, 3 words: Money-Back Guarantee!

I too have that trepidation about setting up things unknown. but once i've saved up enough cash, will take the plunge....with a cheap cartridge! hahaha :) Seriously.

Many ppl have expressed gr8 satisfaction with this arm, just not on this forum. As has been mentioned, try the DIY boards or those from the UK... more users there i believe.

I am the alleged lone gunman of record above. The Terminator is an excellent arm that easily surpassed a Graham 1.5tc & SME IV on my modded VPI TNT. It takes a bit of tweeking if this is your first experience with a linear arm, as well as email dialog with the manufacturer to dimension a pedestal base for your particular TT. Construction of the air supply requires basic skills with a hand drill. It is well worth the effort and IMO represents one of the best values in analog.

Anybody has compared the Terminator to other tengential arms the likes of ET2.5 or clear audio?
