Tonearm/Cart Matching Assistance - SAEC 407/23

@harpo75  : It's really weird SAEC tonearms ( at least the 407/506/8000 ) that were made with an exceptional quality building levels choosed knife bearing, unfortunated for say the least.

Very interesting!   I had never heard this.  I’ll have to research that. 
Hoping the Stanton Epoch II HZ7S cartridge performs well in the 407/TM.  

So I’ve been looking for information on this Dr. Sa Win and the manual you speak of.  I am not able to find anything on Dr. Sa Win or what you speak of about knife edge chatter.  Could you refer me to this information please.  I’ve also never heard of the Saec arms having any issue like this.  Thanks!

Try looking up Sao win cartridge or take Raul‘s Word for it. He knows where of he speaks.

@harpo75 : The Warning because he puts that way comes in the operation manual of the SMC 10 LOMC designed by Dr. Sao Win. That cartridge came from 2018 and Dr. Win manufactured too a Srain Gauge cartridge and TT too.

I sold my sample and I don't have any more the manual. By coincidence SME changed from knife/ball historical bearings to ABEC9 gimball in its SME V and you can be sure that did it for good reasons.

Thak’s lewm.
