How does it sound? I have not got a clue. Essential to have an arm that enables you to optimise this. Because of this they are easy to set up but are sensitive to vta. The Allearts MC-1 cartridge is beautifully made it takes Jan a week to make one! The precision and quality conrol is probably unequalled. So any comment i make should take this into account. The Verdier Platine has been modified to optimise its performance power supply, motor suspension etc. Just as an aside the Viv Rigid float works well with the SPU and any other cart you can throw at it.Īs was mentioned in a previous post I have a number of carts all are used on A Graham III with 12" wands. As far as the SME M2-12r and the 3012r are concerned, a friend of mine who has a lot more experience than I have and used to refurbish the earlier arm now uses the M2-12r on his Raven for his SPU's and would not go back. I used a SME 345 on an Oracle once and it was a superb match. My only experience with the SME was a V on my Verdier and it just did not work for me. I used his set princesses in my 300b monoblocks.Īs I seem to have been mentioned a couple of times in this thread I will weigh in. I had a set amp and tube line and phono stage prior. I changed tubes in the VAC from the Russian kt88 to Sophie electric Coke bottle blue kt88 which gave me more of that musical density I was missing. I had a tube phono but the xp 17 was so dead quiet and open when I heard at it I thought it might be a good mate with VAC. And it has about infinite loading capability. It took a lot of work but the people at the needle doctor help me get my settings correct for my cartridge which helped a lot but it wasn't until I got the zenwave audio cables that I started being able to listen to more of my collection. Prior to getting that I listen to a pass Labs XP 17 and that's what I wound up getting. My VAC IQ 170 integrated I got without a phono stage. Sonically, the SPU #1 models are genuine SPUs, known for their full-bodied and powerful music image, minimum of intermodulation distortion and an impressive channel separation.Thank you for your reply I listen to a wide variety of music but like jazz, classical, vocals, some rock if I can stand the recording, country and I have found almost any of the reissued 45 RPM albums most sound just wonderful.
