nice setup
btw where did you get that record brush arm/name?
I am trying to decide between a 12" Groovemaster, Schick or Bokrand for my 301 project.. to use with EMT and SPUs. I know some friends here own at least 2 of the 3. I am leaning towards the Groovemaster for their after sales service and ease of adjustment.
I know comparing tonearms is a massive PITA but anyone have any comments on how these arms stack up sonically?
Shitty lift though.
I bought the FR lift from Audiosilente
Drop in replacement
Also take a look at the Timestep arm. Same DNA as the Groovemaster, they're made by the same OEM manufacturer but there are differences, can't remember think it's the anti-skate
hiCan you give us an update on the Grovermaster. Are you happy with this tonearm?
If you want higher mass and under $3k not much else to look at
As far as I know they are identical to the Groovemaster tonearms you can buy direct from Audio Creative. The only difference I know, ist the length of the timestep tonearms which slightly differ from the length of the tonearms Audio Creative offers.
Best Regards

Good point. Let us know your thoughts on this one.Maybe the "Sorane" (formerly known as "Abis") TA-1L tonearm is an alternative.
(Sorane is built from the Japanese company "IT Industries", the OEM manufacturer from (as an example) Ikeda Tonearms)

I have just ordered one to accommodate my Ortofon SPU
