| What's been your turntable ownership over the years? I started with ''the best ever'' LP 12 and used with the wrong tonearm(FR-64 S) for about 10 years. Then moved to P.Lurnes Audiomeca J1 which was a kind of ''liberation'' from kneeling under the LP 12for spring adjustments. Then got a ''better Au... | |

| Curved and Straight Tonearms Dear Lew, But you was not able to see the VTF spring and the greasin which the spring is dipped. So Raul may be right by assumingall kinds of resenances caused by the spring in your FR-64 . My got so much greas that it hardly can bread. So no reso... | |
| Curved and Straight Tonearms Genesis 168, For those who swear by following the user manualyou should mention that ''P to S'' distance as prescribed in themanual is 230 mm. Not 231,5 mm. The later is recommendedby the first German review of the FR-64 S tonearm by ''Das Ohr"Mag... | |

| Curved and Straight Tonearms Dear Dover, ''there are many ways to skin a cat'' but this philosophydoes not apply for the lateral balance by FR-64. I have no idea whythis distance of 5mm is mentioned in the user manual. By using theexpression ''Apprrox 5 mm'' the manual is as ... |
