Dear @chakster : Again, you have no idea what you are talking about and not only because Allaerts but because that worst ever tonearm you are talking . Can you understand what means " a non damped tonearm design and balanced ringing mechanism "? can you?

Dear @bonzo75 : Brinkmann could be a good option for any of those great Allaerts. In many ways has son similar design " characteristics " than the very high touted Breuer tonearms.

@chakster , with all respect I think you have no idea of what you posted for the Allaerts cartridge.  Maybe you need to listen to the Formula One or at least the MC2 Finis Gold.

Dear @ferrari275: Sir, you said:  """  Allaerts make superlative cartridges. """

I own ( between others. ) Allaerts cartridges and I agree with your statement but it has no sense to me that you recomend to @bonzo75  to try the worst tonearm design ever. Not only comes with a ringing mechanism for its balanced design but the worst part is that's a non-damped design and additional with very old internal wires that are not up to task with any cartridge. Of course that we can use that tonearm if we want destroy the cartridge quality on purpose. Up to each one of us.

The Allaerts deserves any thing but that FR tonearm, it does not matters what other gentlemans think about.
