EMT 912 tonearm

[puroagave]

Anyone using the new EMT 912 arm? it's an updated redo of the 927 'banana' arm that was discontinued in '18, if I read correctly. The updated design is now built in Switzerland under the supervision of Micha Huber of Thales fame. The spec sheet says it has an effective mass of ~12 gm, which on paper, is a good match for most of the carts in my quiver. I have a spare position on one of my 'tables to add another arm, this looks like an interesting option for a 12 incher.

I have the 912 Professional on order to complete my Dr. Feickert Blackbird build - I'll be using the EMT JSD 6 cartridge.

I'll report back once it's complete...curious what other turntables / cartridge pairings people are using with these arms.

What's your impression of the 912 on you Feickert?

Mr. Reichert - I ordered this build based on your review and description; which perfectly aligns with how I listen...the build is taking a bit longer than expected and was told that it'll be arriving in the next week or so. I'll report back asap.
