what arm for kiseki agate ruby?


I found the specs of the cart on Vinyl Engine and through the tonearm cartridge compatibility chart it is recommended to use a low mass arm. I see many people doing the opposite; I usually see a Fidelity FR-64. What gives?

The specs of 20 compliance and weight of 11 grams does scream low mass.

Does anyone have this cartridge and can recommend an arm or make sense of this?

Gracias

I used a Purple Heart Saphire in a Zeta tonearm for quite a while in back in the day. Perhaps not a great match on paper but I got great musical sound, so I echo Viridian's suggestion re: a high mass arm.
I still have the cart but unfortunately not the arm.
