While Axel Schurholz in Germany is a good friend of my Ican recommend him by refering to many satisfy customersin the MM thread. I can add his 40+ years of experience.(www.schallplattennadeln.de) There is also an short Englishinfo on the same site. 
Question on FR 66s
I asked Daniel (Dertonarm) about the 'geometry' of all those FR-7 versions. He still swears by those 'antiquity' while his answer surprised me very much. The stylus inthose huge headshells is not at the same distance by all of them. So, probable, ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Lew, I don't believe at all that you can be confused.But pretending to be is of course possible and even legitimate. 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear comrade Don, For the first time in my life I am gladthat my dad is death. He was an 'ortodox communist' and would disinherit me without any mercy for such a 'deviation'. 
Question on FR 66s
Dear Thuchan, I am really sorry for you but Daniel obviously love me more than you. However I like to think that my ingenious comparison between 'iron horse and locomotive' (aka the usual headshell versus Arche) moved Daniel in such a way that he ... 
Question on FR 66s
Dear Suteetat, I own 12 tonearms but use 'only' three of them. The Triplanar and the Reed 2A on my Kuzma S.R and the FR 64 s on my Sp 10. I also own some 'universal protractors' but when I got my first Mint LP I was 100%sure when I ordered the oth...

Dear Fleib, My comrade and I are talking about our carts as if they were our children. I complained to him that one of my kids (TK 7SU) has no shoe(s). My excuse by the 'borrowing' of the 'shoe' from the AT 12S was that I don't recoginze the AT 12...

Dear comrade, Dangerous undertaking for a (damn)foreigner but I am not able to resist: you screwed up with those screws. I, 'in the other side' as Raul is used to say, deed try to get rid of the AT 12S but nobody was willing to pay $40 for,uh, the... 
Question on FR 66s
Dear Thuchan, 'Who told you I got my Arche,( etc.) for free?'Well, dear Thuchan, I don't use question marks as often as some Aussie but 'it' was there at the end of my hypothetical statement. As a (guest) member of the 'German group' I assumed 'th... 
Question on FR 66s
What is in a name? Well the name is about the reference and when we want to find something we need a name. Thetonearm made by 'tonearm' (aka'Der Tonarm' in German) iscalled the Axiom. The Arche headshell which we discussedin the context of the 'ir...

Dear comrade, There are rules and there are situations without rules. The last mentioned situation is present when you read the known expression: 'it depends...'.My Sumiko 'The arm' has 5 different counterweights meant for cartridges from 5 till 2... 
Question on FR 66s
Speaking about repetition. This is 33 1/2 time we dwell about tonearm geometry. The 1/2 one was the thread with only two contributions so it would be not correct to countthis one as a whole thread. I play my records only around the O points with t... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
There is this German saying: Das bessere ist dem guten Feind'. Not easy to translate but, put in our vocabulary: 'a better cart is the enemy of the good one'.I prefered the Akai180 above the 550 ml. According to my microscope (50x) the 550 ML has ... 
Question on FR 66s
Suteetat, It is not my intention to suggest that you should become a collector of protractors but I ordered by Yip from the Mint tractor exactly this distance:231.5 mmI need to adjust just one cart and than use this sample to adjust the other head... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Fleib, I have no opinion about the possible substitution possibilities among AT carts nor am I so smart to grasp or understand AT nomenclature. Every time I need to clean whatever stylus my heart shrinks. I don't believe that I am the right p...
