Any Supreme II owners upgrading?
There isn't a supreme 2 from my understanding and yes, when the elite becomes available, I am getting one.
Is there a huge difference between phantom 2 and supreme?
I do not know what else has been changed in the Elite besides the wiring, but whatever improvements you did to the arm are easily audible. I just wanted to let you know that I am really impressed!
Is the elite better then the Phantom ll---if one had the nordosts odin cable installed in the Phantom ll- well you wouldn't say it was or could get better with the installation of an elite tonearm which uses the same Odin cabling in it's housing. so we set out to find out the differences--and in the end this is what my friend wrote to Bob Graham-
Hi Bob,
I was at Bobby's today as he swapped his Phantom Supreme with the Phantom Elite. Although I understand that his Supreme had already been upgraded with Nordost Odin wiring and although he kept the same arm wand, the difference was simply amazing. The ambience retrieval, the differentiation of instrumental timbres and the overall transparency of the presentation jumped to a completely different level. I do not know what else has been changed in the Elite besides the wiring, but whatever improvements you did to the arm are easily audible. I just wanted to let you know that I am really impressed!
My friend does not own a TT --but after the end of the day- he had no choice..none-yes he has the best digital I ever heard- playing out with the Vandersteens 7 with audio research 250 with emm dsd downloads and yet he had no choice..
My AF1 should be shipping soon from Japan.
Congrats ! The suspense of the wait must be gripping
Congrats too! My AF1 is shipping out next week.
I was told I'll have to wait quite a while for my Elite so I'll have to make do with one of my Phantoms in the meantime.
