Experience w/ Trans-Fi Auio Terminator Tone Arm?


How many of you have the Trans-Fi Auio Terminator Air Bearing linear Tone Arm? Or the older Trans-Fi Evolution Tonearm. What is your experience with this arm, how satisfied are you with this arm, and how does it compare with other tonearms you have tried?

I am seriously thinking of getting the Terminator for my VPI Super Scoutmaster with Rim Drive, but have no experience with linear tone arms. I have found just one person on Audiogon who has this arm and loves it. This fact is somewhat confusing to me, since if the arm is so great, as some people say it is, you would think more people on Audiogon would have it or at least tried it out.
Thanks,

I have had my Terminator T3 Pro with Tomahawk wand & another custom wand to allow headshell swap for a year. Top arm and it punches way above its price point. I use it on a heavily modified slate ptp Lenco and it's a great combination IMO. I also use other arms like 12" Reed 2A, Graham Phantom 2, Schick, Exclusive P3A, Max 237, etc on other tables and Terminator/Lenco is not humbled in that company.
Thanks Sgunther. What did you hear in re-so mat that was superior to using record clamp. Vic stated that clamping the LP deadends the sound. No?
I have ordered one T3 that is going to replace my VPI 105i on Classic 3 Deck with wonderful ZYX 4D-X Low output.

The VPI 10.5i is a wonderful tonearm but, when pushed to the limit, shows sometimes a non-consistent tracking ability along the whole side of the LP.

It is rare and don't get me wrong, if you get the proper set up for it the 10.5 it will be a wonderful piece of equipment.
Nevertheless, my system is top notch, it is distortion free, high dynamic, extrmely natural and every little imperfection is going to be magnified.
In this case, the tracking of the arm, the difference between middle and inner grooves is something I want to get rid of.
IMHO the tangent arm is the way to go.
Why would I bother reading radially and compensate for it with AS and appox of 2 null points, when vinyls are recorded tangentially?
I feel Vic is a very knowledgable person and the reviews all around the world are very consistent.
I am excited and curious to try the new arm when it will arrive and then I will post more detailed opinion and impressions on how it soounds compared to my previous combination.
Finally I was able to set the new arm up and listened to it carefully.

I don't have a lot of adjective to pull off from my vocabulary to describe it.
As many other users I would just say that the performance are top notch.
Customer service is top notch as well.

Price is the best aroun!

mmm....maybe I can rate it

AA++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++!!! :)
