VM760SLC
Posted by rindolini on January 4, 2017 at 11:09:37:
John: You'll probably still have to wait a little, as that "new" VM5x0/6x0/7x0 family is just being introduced. I'd expect AT to show these at the CES (provided they have a booth there, of course, but I'd assume 'em to...), but I'd guess actual availability might take a couple of weeks more...
I wonder, why you'd want to go for the VM760SLC, though - because personally I wouldn't feel inclined to grab what would seem an only moderately sharp Ogura Vital over the slightly sharper Shibata and way sharper MicroLine (with those two also sporting a way larger major radius), if that's the by far most expensive option. I.e., so far the VM760SLC would rather seem to be the least attractive of the top models in terms of price-performance, unless AT would come up with a yet unknown, but good technical point (like for example a significantly more miniaturised shank).
Oh, and what hasn't been mentioned yet: Seems like AT would want to save a little on the accessories - 'cause the depicted lead wires don't seem to be the usual AT6101 PC-OCC leads anymore... *sigh*
