Brinkman Balance Comparisons

I am sorry to hear that. Hope you will get the retipped cartridge soon.

I ordered the Raven One a couple of weeks ago with the Allaerts MC1B cartridge, waiting time is about three months. Currently, I am just patiently waiting.....

I had space and weight issues if I order the Raven AC so the One is a logical alternative for me.

The Raven One comes with two armboard, I have a Dynavector 501 tonearm and Benz Micro LP with me so it should be fun.

I am currently considering the purchase of the Raven One; the website does not really describe in detail what the platter and the plinth is made of. Based on your observation and handling of the Raven AC, does there material look/ feel more like acrylic?

To me, the choice is a straight one between the Scheu flagship and the Raven One. I live in Singapore, due to the smaller market, I will not get the chance to try out both models before I make the purchase unless someone else's orders arrive and I listen to their set up in the showroom. Hence I can only rely on this forum for more information.

Many thanks.

Thank you for your response. You explanation on the difference in sound between acrylic and delrin has been helpful. I have the same observation as you in relation to the acrylic type of sound but do not have the opportunity on the delrin.

At this point in time, my preference is with the Raven One. In terms of pricing, it is very close to the Scheu DL2 flagship.

Do you have any update on how the Raven AC sounds after a month of having it? Many thanks.
