Raven AC3

It is black, it is heavy and you can whip your feet while listening to Chamber
music ... don't get me wrong. I really enjoy listening to it.

When someone pays me for that...

Anyone else feel that a dealer should not be trying to sell his own TT's in a thread about a TT he doesn't carry? Seems very rude to me.

I agree. It's obnoxious.

I agree with Wrm57. This thread is about the Raven AC3.

I've heard it in the distributor's room at two audio shows. It sounded dark and and less than neutral to me each time. However, this may have been the tube electronics and horn speakers. In other words, the set up. An audio buddy has the Raven One (I believe) with Wilson Sashas and Lamm electronics and his system does not sound dark at all.

I think the Raven would benefit from isolation on a Vibraplane or other serious isolation platform.

I dont have a AC but a Raven One with a Kuzma 4point tonearm and the sound is nothing but dark.

But it is important that you place it on a hard surface. I have mine on a plate made of slate.
