Fidelity Research FR64s Headshell dilemma

Dear chakster, I hope you are not refering to me as the person
who knows everything better(grin). 
In order to get your simpathy I want to mention to use the
same SAEC mat. In addition and by assumption that my memory
still function I think to remember that SAEC tonerams are made
by only considering the arms themselfs in particular regarding
their ''balance''. They were not interested in records and their
peculiarities. Probaly by an attempt to avoid toenearm geometry
disputes . As you can see this attempt is ignored in order to
keep those disputes alive. BTW I have chosen hedshells in which
any cart can be adjusted exactly according to their effective length. 

@nandric haha, no i didn't mean any of your posts here :) 

I remember Yamaha YSA-2 straight tonearm with no offset, here is a discussion. 

 

Dear chakster, You forget to post the picture of the ''linear carrier''
of this Yamaha invention. Should we ask all 4 owners  of
ET-2 (long) thread for explanation? Chris is my other Slavic 
brother always willing to answer any question. I assume that ET-2
is better arm otherwise there would be no such long thread about
this one. 

This is incredible and in the stupidity land for say the least.

In the page 2 he promises:

"" I’m really tired of this pointless thread, you can continue without me, thanks. ""

"" I want to quit from this discussion..""



obviously he not even can honor his words. After that:


""" I don’t read Rauls posts, not interested. """


Really? and follows posting about ! ! ! ? ? as I said in the stupidity land world. Some like to live there all their life. Pity.

In my country people say:

"" a talk-talk-talk man falls down before a cripple one ""

@nandric this is not a linear tracking tonearm, look here (no offset angle at the headshell), a very old document here.

Yamaha is short and straight tonearm as you can see, yamaha is an old tonearm, but look at the modern high-end from ViV Lab (same concept with underhang and straight position of the cartridge in the headshell).

Now if anyone can hear distortion in this video please wright back

Tonearm manufacturers breaking the rules and they are doing it for decades, who cares about that Baerwald ? Who would buy those tonearms if they are not good ? 

Remember Swedish SAT tonearm ?
