is anyone using the tw acustic raven ac1 with the kuzma airline tonearm ?  i am interested in opinions on this combo .  what would be an ideal cartridge for such a linear tracking setup ?

Haven't used the Kuzma, but have used the Eminent Technologies, which is close and the Clearaudio.  Pretty much had great results with my normal stable of cartridges, Dynavector XV-1s, Lyra Skala, Shelter 9000, Clearaudio DaVinci, etc. etc.,

thanks jeff for the info .  i am building a system around the martin logan clx with depth i subs .  which tone audio issue contains your review of this combo ?  what amps are the ideal match for the clx / depth ?  would the atma-sphere ma 2 mark 3.1 ( 220 watts ) do the clx justice ?  as far as the original question , it is my understanding that the et 2.5 air bearing linear tracking arm is no longer manufactured .  the kuzma airline is almost over the top ( and 10,000 usd ) but all reports are that it is flawless in execution .  you reviewed the tw acustics raven two .  but i would appreciate your opinion of the tw acustics raven ac1 ( single motor ) if you have heard this unit .  ( i just assume that you audio review guys have heard everything ever built and live in special anechoic family rooms where a million bucks worth of super gear is sitting around looking cool . )  i am thinking that a raven ac1 plus the kuzma airline plus a decent cartridge ( maybe zyx universe ) can be had new for around 20 k and such a combo would rival the uber killer 50 k linear trackers one reads about on the online audio porn sites .  your thoughts ?  thank you .  i greatly value and respect your time and input as i am dropping big coin and the choices are bewilderingly infinite .
