Very nice arms Mike, my wooden Scheu arm looks like a toy compared to those 12-inchers!
i think the wooden Scheu is an elegant looking tonearm. i do somewhat agree with mep that longer arms look better than shorter ones. i think the finish quality of the Telos, the materials used and the long wooden arm wand do make it look quite imposing and very purposful. it sounds pretty good too.
Most 9" arms look like toys compared to 12" arms.
