How much of an advantage does a curved tonearm provide with regard to sound quality? I want to pick up a Stanton ST-100 but it's $449. I found someone selling the STR8-100 for $249. They are identical apart from the tone arm. I'm not using it to do scratch routines, so I really don't need the straight tonearm. "Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups."
