DaVinci Tonearm

Hi Breezer, HI Dan_ed,

well I use the Davinci 12 Inch with a Takeda Miyabi
Cartridge. The build of the Davinci is perfect.
Well I did compare in my own System the Davinci
againt the schroeder dps both mounted a Takeda Miyabi
and the Davinci outperforms the schroeder dps in
terms of more precise mid and a much deeper bass.

Thanks for that comparison, Karl-Heinz. I'm curious about how easy cartridge alignment is on the Da Vinci's since there seems to be single wholes for the mounting screws and no slots to allow movement of the cartridge on the head.

Also, how does this tonearm compare with your Phantom and SME V?

Karl-Heinz,

You said above that the DaVinci outperfromed the Schroeder DPS. Further above, you asked Thomashesig why he did not purchase the Schroeder Reference SQ instead of the DaVinci. Do you have experience comparing the SQ to the DV? What is the difference. Do you plan to get one?

HI Dan_ed

The DaVinci arm uses SME style mount. Do the holes are just as SME and the base slide forward or back for proper alignment.

Hi Paul, I did see that adjustment for overhang, but what if the cartridge needs to be twisted slightly to align the stylus in the grooves?
