TW-Acustic Arm


TW-Acustic has a beautiful looking arm. Does anyone know what it sounds like?

Syntax,

Stoning still exists in some parts of the world. Sadly to say. Funny how you advocate it.

On a side note: we spend ridiculous money for a tiny diamond at a tip of a cartridge. For the same money a nice size diamond can easily be purchased. No one has ever said there is sense in the price of Audio. All the metal of one of the better amps can purchase a nice Audio or BMW. Yet we audio fools buy equipment. Ultimately,it is about what is important to us as individuals. Difficult enough to create a new audiophile in todays environment. A thread filled with negative does nothing to help it.
True a thread filled with negativity does not help anyone BUT then when a manufacturers openly 'sells' and inserts their opinions as TW did earlier this also does not help. TW obviously has an agenda here, and although he wants us all to think it's about making audiophile friends it's NOT! It can't be - or am I be cynical?
there is a rumor that Monty Phyton discovered, that they never made a movie about Audiophiles. Time is ready now...Based on the bad economics they want to use the Movie "Life of Brian" with a new title(Life of the Tonearm)with some changes in the text...(transfer to our modern time, Jehova will be replaced with FR-66s etc.....)
Robm, if you're going to point a finger at TW that's fine.

So long as you point one at derblowhard as well.

But he and his flight attendant, syntax, get extra frequent flyer miles for chutzpah.

Now boarding, the Humility Express. Non-stop to Munich.
What I am missing from all these dear critics of mine (my negativism, my inapprobiate sharp tone (sorry for hitting the right buttons - but I am an author by profession in real life) ... extent the list as you wish) is but a single technical support for the TW 10.5.
Tell me why this tonearm should deserve any laurels ahead.
Tell me about its innovative new design features.
Tell me about all the issues in pivot tonearm design which have been addressed here and haven't been so already elsewhere.
I am waiting.

Since a few days already.

All I get is "but if it sounds greater/better/superior than ..." from people who haven't even heard the 10.5 yet (nor do have - apparently - any small idea about technical issues in tonearm design).
So far a very plain and simple design not really correlating with its very serious price tag.
We are talking about the very first product of its kind launched to the market by a company which has never before made/designed/co-designed a tonearm.

For a brief period it may be fine exchanging comments about personal dislikes, but its a bit boring by now. Each of us know his/her personal disregard of the abilities/hearing/knowledge (extent list at your wish....) of some of the "others".
We have "friends of Charlotta" and "enemies of Charlotta" - fine.
And frankly - its even more boring if the others sense simply isn't capable of getting the joke.
Dgad, the best bonmot however is in fact escaping you totally......

So - any chance to discuss any prospective or theoretical technical greatness and singularity due to unique design features of the tonearm ( reminder: its about the TW 10.5...) discussed here ?
Or do you have the very same problem finding any?
