Dear halcro: """ that’s why arms like the FR-66s and 64s, Micro Seiki Max 282, SAEC WE-8000/ST, Dynavector DV507/II, 505, 501, are still in demand world-wide...even against the very best and latest modern iterations """
that’s only say the level of audio/music ignorance that even today exist in our beloved hobby and nothing more than ignorance.
Ignorance to don’t understand what is happening down there: cartridge/LP/tonearm/TT combo, to not understand the cartridge/LP needs and the delicated role that tonearm plays in this " picture ". So delicated that the best that a " perfect " arm can do is to mantain at minimum all the generated distortions and we can’t even dream with a " perfect " tonearm: just can’t exist, so figure what we have in each of our tonearms!!!! and the damage that all does to the cartridge signal and you are in favor of the " champ " of those distortions!
Nothing wrong with that, as I said somwhere that’s each one privilege: have fun with.
I learn each single day and I don’t turn back my face for what I left but go a head to the audio heaven and the only way to find out is growing up thinking several times " out of the box ".
For many years I was deffending those heavy metal good looking tonearms till I understand what is happening " down there ".
Regards and enjoy the music,
R.
