would this combination work?

Dear Ray: If like Readster post VPI do their TT/tonearm " voicing " with the Dynavector cartridges, then this is the way to go, nothing could comes close to that combination.

I already have experience with a cartridge/tonearm combination: Sumiko Celebration with SME V/IV tonearms: Sumiko choose the SME tonearms for do the Celebration " voicing ", very hard to beat and the ZYX are far from it.

Btw, Dynavector is a great cartridge manufacturer, I can recomended the: 17 D2 and the XV-1.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Hi Nrchy: +++++ " ZYX owners, these cartridges outperform many cartridges costing more and having great reputations. " +++++

It will be very interesting for Ray and for all the people in this forum that you can tell us to which cartridges ( many that cost more ) the ZYX beats, other than Koetsu.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Dear Cello: This is part of my last post ( an answer to Doug ) on the ZYX subject in a thread where you post too:

+++++ " I have a solid opinion on the 1000,100,2 and 3 ZYX cartridges because I already heard on systems that I know, including mine ( two of them ). " +++++

Your post here is out of place and an irresponsible one:
+++++ " you have never had a ZYX Airy2, Airy3 " +++++

Audiofank, as you can " see " I already heard some of the ZYX cartridges. From the first time that I had the opportunity to heard these cartridges my opinion about the faulty bass reproduction on these cartridges never change: it is faulty. This is not only my opinion, here Flyingred note that ZYX problem too.

The problem with people like Cello is that he is a ZYX owner that can't assimilate that " out there " are much better alternatives for less or the same money.
Btw, we all know that " out there " exist better/differents alternatives for what we have in our systems and we have to accept that " fact ". It will be a false illusion to think that what we have is the " best " one: this does not exist.

Regards and enjoy the music.
