ReviewIn my opinion the LVX has remained the best sounding arm at this price available - LVX The Flat Response
The overall tonal balance was very satisfactory, and as a whole the stereo image was well defined with both depth and ambience - LVX Plus (including Basik cartridge) HiFI Choice
No doubt that this arm is a bargain at the price, offering a level of performance that many arms cannot match. Best with moving magnet cartridges - LVX Plus The Flat Response
