Hi Sgunther, I'm currently running a Michell Orbe tt w. Pederson plinth/armboard and Origin Live Ultra motor upgrades, SME V arm and Zu modded Denon 103 cart.
I've recently auditioned the Trans Fi Salvation with Terminator T3Pro linear tracking tonearm. WOW! What can I say? Pretty much blown away!
After listening to a modded Technics SL 1200 direct drive, I came away admiring it's precision, pitch stability and rhythmic propulsion compared to my belt drive Orbe, but felt it had a cold, sterile colouration which I ascribe to micro speed hunting 'jitter'.
The Trans Fi, otoh, had all the positive attributes of the dd Technics, but maintained all the natural warmth and dimensionality of the Orbe. This I ascribe to the Salvation having a high torque motor giving dd like speed stability, but being purely analog with no digital feedback, didn't fall into the trap of continual control of micro speed variations, and so provided a more relaxed, yet precise presentation.
