Hi Ateal, I have the imression that nobody cares about the
question asked by the thread author. He deed not ask info
about the FR-1 but about some ''similar but (possible) better
cart''. By describing differences between the FR-1 and the Shinon
you obviously overlooked the question asked.
The same apply for chakster: what is the connection with his
new (MM) FR-6SE as well the fact that this cart can be used
with heavy tonearms?
