Fidelity Research FR64s Headshell dilemma
Using other calculator it confirms that SAEC made it a " deep " manipulation with the must inner/outer groove radius.In this other calculator I used 37.4mm and 66.9mm and the off set angle and overhang coincide with SAEC specs.So manipulations/com...

Dear @bukanona : please correct me if I’m wrong. I just finished to analize what SAEC did it for the cartridge/tonearm alignment on each of his models and I took as an example your 308SX.Thank’s that you brought out here the SAEC tonearm alignment... 
Fidelity Research FR64s Headshell dilemma
Other often " trouble " is that tonearm manufacturers sometimes like to " round off " the values, example: if the off set angle real value is 15.22° they just round and use 15° and same thing could happens with overhang too. The FR/Ikeda analized ...

Dear @nandric  :  """  What Kessler and Pisha discovered is that by te most tonearms the offset angle and overhang were wrongly chosen...""for me that only speaks that not all tonearm manufacturers took with the necessary professional attitude th...

Dear @bukanona : I owned SAEC tonearms and it’s a disaster for say the least. The only model with an orthodox alignment is the WE-8000 that I owned and that uses Löfgren B wiith JIS standard not IEC one. I have to say that the 8000 model was thenl...

@chakster : " This is how anyone can change alignment from Stevenson to Baerwald without changing PS distance...""yes, I’m not saying you can’t. The issue is that you are changing the EL with its implications and of course that with TT with integr...

Fidelity Research FR64s Headshell dilemma
Dear @lohanimal : In my last post is an answer for you can't have to worry about, go with 230mm.Now if you ask to MINTLP that you need the protractor for a tonearm with 245mm ( FR/Ikeda spec. ) and Löfgren/Baerwald alignment he will does and will ... 
Fidelity Research FR64s Headshell dilemma
Dear @karl_desch : " is that the P2S mounting distance is specific to the tonearm regardless of alignment choice. "Not really/exactly that. The P2S distance is specific to two characteristics: first the alignment choosed and second the tonearm EL....

Dear @lohanimal  and friends: Till today seems to me that other than @dover , perhaps @lewm  and finally @nandric learning on the overall alignment subject all of you still have a different levels of misunderstood and I know that because what you ...

Dear @dover : ""  Just because the stylus is conical, does not mean alignment is irrelevant. """you are rigth, stylus tip shape has no " interest "/is not involved in the cartridge/tonearm alignment set up.That is only common sense that stupid pe... 
Fidelity Research FR64s Headshell dilemma
Dear @lohanimal  : I have no idea of your protractor. When you are making the cartridge alignment what  must be parallel is not the cartridge body to the lines but the cartridge cantilever.If the stylus tip " won't reach the hole " then the set up... 
Fidelity Research FR64s Headshell dilemma
Dear @lewm  : The difference between P2S 231.5mm and 230mm is not overhang. Now if what you said is that the difference between EL and P2S distances is overhang then is correct.Now, according orthodox alignment calculations we can't know the P2S  ...

But not only you have that misunderstood about because even reviewer as M.Fremer or TAS ones have it and several tonearm manufacturers too.Here some examples of that misunderstood: https://www.analogplanet.com/content/uni-din-versus-l%C3%B6fgren-b...
