Going through the treasure tables for a bard, I'm dismayed to note that the circlet of persuasion and the phylactery of the occult are both 'circlet' items. I'm assuming this means you can only choose one. I've noticed similar problems with spellcasters on the divine list: the headband of inspired wisdom and the phylactery of faithfulness are also both circlet items.
It seems as though arcane spellcasters have access to a great number more items, and also have a great amount more item slot freedom available. A wizard or arcane sorcerer that wants to increase their signature magic skill can wear a robe of the archmagi or hat of the magi, and neither of these interferes with the diadem of intellect.
I think equity among items or a clause that allows changing the slot of an item to another appropriate option would allow for far more flexibility in building. At the very least, there's no reason an arcane sorcerer should have more items available than a sorcerer of another bloodline.
