Question on FR 66s

Dear Nandric,
ah good for you. You seem to be a rare exception :-)
Nevertheless my Arche headshells are working properly...
So which is your next tonearm project? Axiom for free or the Mexican stick?
Maybe you will have a beard until Raul will make an outing on his arm. Nevertheless we already collected so many words from him and as I just now realize he doesn't like to be defeated by anyone, so he must do something... or?

Dear Suteetat, I own 12 tonearms but use 'only' three of them. The Triplanar and the Reed 2A on my Kuzma S.R and the FR 64 s on my Sp 10. I also own some 'universal protractors' but when I got my first Mint LP I was 100%sure when I ordered the other two. Whatever the next one may be for $100 there is no contest in my opinion.

Regards,

Dear Thuchan, I am really sorry for you but Daniel obviously love me more than you. However I like to think that my ingenious comparison between 'iron horse and locomotive' (aka the usual headshell versus Arche) moved Daniel in such a way that he decided to give me a present...
You as the owner of a company are of course familiar with the so called 'intellectual ownership'. When Raul refers to 'his' pre-amp, 'his' tonearm ,etc, 'his' , he rarely mention his employee Guliermos (or similar) who is actually the technical guy behind the products mentioned.
As you know the intellectual property is of the company and not of the employees inside the company. As Raul told us himself he managed to change some fuses, caps and resistors on his own. Well I am sure that my aunt Natalija in Serbia is also capable to solder such parts with their values writen on their 'heads' in whatever component. You can observe the same capabilities in the speaker thread. Unbelievable how many speaker experts are there, capable to discovere 'cheap wire' and/ or 'capacitors' in any speaker whatever. It is like this : 'Heureka'!: cheap wire inside! No wonder Nordost get rich with such experts.

Regards,

Dear Raul,
I have my SAEC WE 8000 quite a long time and will not sell it - never!
I will not repeat arguements on our discussion. You had not the best experiences with the SAEC or the FR-66s. So which tonearm "will beat" these two old designs from your perspective? And did you go for some better designs in your system?

Dear Nandric, you may be right regarding mint protractor.
I think I will try SMARTracker for a little while. At least I want to spend a bit more time experimenting with 230 vs 231.5mm on FR64s and once I made up my mind, then I get mint.
For FR66s, did Dertoarm have alternative P2S distance as well or only the FR's spec of 295mm only?
