crtexcnndrm99 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Was surprised when I first saw pics of this model... the overhang of the platter is 'modern' I suppose I'm sure it will sound mighty fine though. Which size arm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which size arm? There are many designs I've seen with bare bones assemblies, with only 3 wings underneath so doesn't faze me looks wise. The quality of the Wand 14- 4 looks up there with the Wand tonearm- which is very high. 14 minutes ago, Peter-C said: Yup, Wand 14-4 tt. Are you going to use your 9” arm evil?

Yes I'm excited myself, as a long term fan of the Wand tonearm- a deck designed specifically to augment it's design has a lot going for it! I will have to assemble a listening panel, my ears have just graduated from cloth level! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
