Michell Gyro SE-what arm?
Thank all of you guys for your time to expound a bit on your opinions.. It sounds like it's pretty much a buyer's market and there are several arms that will work well. I normally am able to avoid being swayed by hype, but I'll confess, the Origin... 
Michell Gyro SE-what arm?
Thanks for your response. I checked out your system-maybe in a couple of years I'll go with the TW Acustic Raven myself. I'd love to-in fact, that's probably where I'd like to end up. You liked the RB1000 on the Gyro/Orbe, though? Here's my questi... 
Decisions, decisions....
It's the Jelco, I'm sure, from the pictures of the Arm I've seen. I must say, though, I like the Sota design. I like having pitch control, for one thing, and the combination of the suspension and the weight of the table seem to me to be a good ide...

Anybody any comments on Tannoy Churchill or D12?
I have no experience with the Churchills, but I have a pair of Tannoy Devons (HPD-315 12" dual concentric driver) and use them with Naim gear (CD3.5/Flatcap/102/Highcap/135's) and love them. The imaging is stunning. But that's the older dual conce... 
Tannoy?
Tannoys are overall my favorite loudspeaker. Very accurate and smooth, but exciting as well. Noted throughout the recording industry for accuracy, they're also known to be "easy on the ears," that is, they don't fatigue the listener. The dual conc...
