Alfred Bokrand cartridge choices

Picked up a Borkrand AB-309 last week. Set up my Ortofon SPU fine but with my EMT XSD and Miyajima Zero couldn't set enough tracking force. Can the Bokrand arm only accommodate heavier SPUs and cartridge+headshells?

They love their Bokrands' over on WBF. There is another thread ' Ordering A Bokrand Tonearm ' where members are sharing stories of waiting indefinitely on a new arm from Alfred. You are lucky to get one!

Can you provide details and a picture? I recall the SAEC arms were exceptionally heavy and only worked well with the heaviest low-compliance cartridges. Plus they had insufficient offset angle.
