DaVa FC-A1 a field coil contender

[Argonaut]

it also measures more linear than many of the Koetsus

I have a late 80’s NOS Blackheart in the drawer which I might pair up with a Riverside TD-124 MKI when I get around to it .

I shipped a FR64S to Richard Mak and had it converted to 66, new Abec9 bearings and continuous wiring from cart clips to rca
It sounds very good with NOS Kiseki Purpleheart

Have you tried the Dava on this 66s

 

[christensenleif@msn.com]

not yet
it´s not wired for DaVa fc dc
and when I alternate between the Soul in Harmony, The Ref in the Sonoro and the Kiseki in FR66, I´ve found a nice combo of readily mounted cart/arms/SUTs and cables that I rotate acc to music, recording etc
I rebuilt my riaa for 5 mm inputs by a switch
2 more are fixed onboard mc: DaVa mono and the original S&B TX103

I have my arms in Singapore for rewiring

I have waited 7 months as a project to get my table - in another month I am optimistic I can share with the world

I decided to go with Yamamoto titanium H6S headshell - you need to drill a little to make holes bigger but the titanium helps cool the dava vs wood and you can adjust azimuth so went with this. Arche seems to complex - need PHD - NASA experience

what if correct alignment ends up between two holes?
I´d have a pro mechanics cnc the row of holes into a continuous track like normal

 

[Mr. Miyagi]

There are already holes - just need to make bigger

Another problem with small fixed holes is setting zenith angle.

this is why I dropped that particular headshell

With regards to ordering a DAVA SOUL & DAVA MONO & DAVA TUBE PSU from Darius, I have tried the both service@cartridgeretip.com & Dava@dava-cartridges.com, but am unable to connect. How else can Darius or an associate be contacted to order these cartridges, is there a WHATSAPP available, I feel like that would be best as I communicate with everyone and their mother that way.

Thanks,

I am interested in this headshell, and thought the alignment problem (between two holes) could be solved by loosen this screw and move the headshell body slightly away from the connector. The ClearAudio headshell also uses this method to adjust alignment. Can this be done with this headshell?

Thanks !

I have always had success with reaching Darius at:

dariusvaliunas@gmail.com

I'm expecting my Soul to arrive sometime in May which I ordered in December of last year.

Richard Mak has experience tweaking - removes a connection point and apparently not a big deal

 

[christensenleif@msn.com]

I did get direct wiring but have both Yamamoto HA-1 and Harmony magnesium that fits

I got the H6

Which headshell you prefer?

 

[christensenleif@msn.com]

I mounted the magnesium, since I thought I don´t need the Purpleheart to sound more "woody" than it already does, but eventually I´ll try the ebony too
if mounting DaVa it needs metal for heat dissapation
