  I really would like to get this tonearm. Any idea how this would compete with a nottingham horizon?

    Yes, my understanding (please correct me if I am wrong Brian) is that the standard mounting setup will be a Rega/Morch/etc. type, and there will be an option for an SME mount as well. As I have only compared the BIX to The Turntable and one other ttable I do not feel that I should offer any conjecture about the BIX vs. any other turntables.

      Yet Brian C mentioned the distribution arrangement by Moerch may bar him from selling the arm as part of the setup outside Hong Kong. Then Moerch doesn't want to do OEM either.

      That would mean vinylphiles may have to buy the arm separately if so desired.

        I'm hoping the Bluenote will be the one. They do OEM and I've heard very good things from some customers using their arms. Just need to get a couple for evaluation to find out if they can perform on par with Morch (at the same price).

          Good to hear that Bluenote may do OEM. Just hope things can work out fine.

  Did you also had the oppertunity to listen to the new Cole MC/MM tube phono preamp? I'm interested in your opinion.

  Thanks,

    I have not heard it. I'm sure that it's a very good phono preamp because Brian has a very good ear and a unique skill for finding great sounding new products.

      Thanks for your reply. I'll have to wait until the Cole preamp arrives.
