I was obviously not familiar with the underhung tonearm concept (being a noob with vinyl related topics, not like most of you anyway) but Lew's post it is very interesting conceptually and to me especially with the description of forces (which again all of you are familiar with) but reading it I just understand the 3 concepts of underhung, linear tracking and S shaped and the repercussion it has on tracking error.Thank you Lew
Fidelity Research FR64s Headshell dilemma
Dear FR64S users can you help me please. I have an FR64S that i bought without a headshell. I have only just got round to getting it mounted. I did pivot to spindle distance of 231.5 (the alternative distance' I also have an armboard for 230.
I tried a Sony headshell that i had - it was 2mm short of correct alignment. So I bought a new Jelco headshell it was also too short.
CAn you tell me what headshell does work to allow other cartridges to work. I'm just using a DL103 for alignment first as I fettle the rest of my front end.
thanks
