Refurbish Fidelity Research Tonearms

My FR-64s Tonearm has been completely restored now….

New ABEC-9 tight Tolerance Bearings Video…

Bearing set precisely with Torque Wrench, with no play and no over tightness.
Bearings has been replaced with ABEC-9 highest swiss quality bearing with proper location.

The dynamic VTF spring has been properly lubricated with Synthetic Grease.

The Ikeda silver wire has been replaced with AnalogMagik Reference Tonearm Silver Wire, with Silver Braided Shield.
One cable soldered behind the HS Mount replacing DIN connectors to WBT 0102 AG Silver Plugs for Phono Input. No more interruptions.
I also had the option for Kondo silver wire inside, but i got their KSL cables for a try some years ago and i gave them back. Did not come close to premium Audioquest wire.

and the cost is .... ? 

The refurbish is 800 $ …. And when you like to change the wire inside - broken, copper, silver … -  etc. he offers some choices

A cheap check / improvement for your Arm
Turn the VTF knob
do you feel the clicks when you pass 1.0. … 1.5 …2.0 etc or hear it?Or nothing when you turn it?When not, then the grease inside is stiff …. And the Arm is far away from it’s abilities … no problem … put it out into the sun on a warm summer day that it heats up … then do it again multiple times and you will hear the clicks very clear and the move of the knob will be without force …. Install it and listen … it will be a huge sonic difference to the better …
and the grease will stay more liquid/smooth for a pretty long time ….

Thanks Syntax!  Let us know what you think after listening with the new arm.  What differences are you hearing?
