Just found out it is a Ikeda 9C III.
Cart recommendations for Fidelity Research FR-64S
Hello,
I have a Fidelity Research FR-64S mounted as a second arm on a Clearaudio Innovation Wood Compact. I wanted to use this arm as a multi purpose arm so I can play 78RPM records, mono 33s and lastly stereo 33s.
I was thinking of buying the Ortofon SPU series of carts as a starting point.
First, the 78RPM, then down the road a bit a mono SPU, and even further down the road a stereo SPU.
My thinking here was that to switch back an forth between these respective headshells It would require little to no work resetting arm weight and VTA.
The FR-64S did come with the original Fidelity Research headshell which weighs 20.7 grams. It also came with an Orsonic AV-101S headshell which weighs 14.5 grams and also a SAEC headshell which weighs 10.4 grams, so all of these are options.
I am very open to your thoughts and suggestions here as I am a novice with the higher end of audio and analog.
Thank you in advance.
