Fidelity Research MC201 for an Ortofon AS-212?
I had both the 103 and 103R and I was not happy with the sound. After reading the Korf Blog I found out that the Denon 103 is known for generating a lot of excess of mechanical energy that goes straight into the headshell. But it was not the Denon... 
Fidelity Research MC201 for an Ortofon AS-212?
First of all I do not know the arm's effective mass. Second, there is no way to listen to my arm/cartridge combination without first buying a cartridge, this to me makes no sense, unless you have money to throw away. Dover's approach seems correct.  
Fidelity Research MC201 for an Ortofon AS-212?

Fedex Customs problem
FedEx did a great job. The arm was shipped on April 29 and it arrived in Memphis on January 1. Better impossible. My friend in Edinburgh told me that I had two choices, £32 including £50 insurance or £65 with insurance for £700, I asked for the la... 
Fedex Customs problem
I have just found out that we are for hard times. The form was supposed to be replaced back in 2017 and they never did but it wasn't in use since. The current administration put it back in circulation last month as part of their new tax plan. I...
