This is a very enthusiastic review. I am not familiar with the Mission tonearm, but sounds like there is no comparison. The thing I like about your review is that it appears the listening experience transcended the audiophile language or digging into minutiae to extract some positive value. I am in the process of putting together a Garrard 301, and wonder if this would be good match. On the one hand i gather that the tonearm's stiffness makes it a very efficient retriever of information, OTOH given the Garrard idler's and motor's potential noise vibration pick up issue would this also be picked up? (sounds like it didnt). Other questions- What is the arm length? What about the noise floor/background silence?
