Correct alignment for Fidelity Research 64fx/SPU?
Dear @lewm  : I like well damped tonearms with fixed bearing pivot and with removable headshell.Vintage Technics and Lustre are inside those characteristics along AT design. All internally re-wired.From some time now I'm using my own designed and ... 
Correct alignment for Fidelity Research 64fx/SPU?
@edgewear : Yes I know is a double point but it's not a fixed bearing as FR or Technics or other true fixed tonearm designs. A fixed tonearm pivot design is a lot more stable than a single or dual pivot designs.R.
