Nakamichi Dragon CT - Keep, Change Arm, Change Table?

Hi, The original Dragon Ct arm looks a lot like the Mission 774 LC from Jelco, maybe it has better tolerances but I am more than convinced that it is the Mission with another brand.
Honest tonearm but too cheap for a car that in the past was very expensive ... IHMO change with Sme would be a good leap of quality provided it is compatible with the compliance of your Zyx.

Dear @vernonwtx: The auto functions in the Dragon is a must to keep. Other than the SME the Reed could be a good tonearm option for your Universe II.

I don't have experiences with your TT and I don't know if you can change the TT mat or not trying to achieve better performance and maybe a good TT platform that can reduce internal/external vibrations/resonances.

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,
R.

Thanks all for the comments.

best-groove: the CT arm spec’s are closer to the the Jelco 50/200, but looks like the Jelco SA-250ST (Mission 774LC), but with an oil damping trough.

raul: I definitely want to keep the auto functions. Reed and Durand Talea look like excellent options. I have a good platform, I tried different weights and mats (the original mat and a Stillpoint LP1 best; equal to Audio Technica AT665BX setup). Now I have a better tonearm upgrade path.

amg56: thanks for the turntables comparison... that was one of the things I was asking for.
