Thales Simplicity tonearm review in Stereophile.


Michael Fremer's review of the Thales Simplicity tonearm in this January's Stereophile is pretty brutal. Are there any owners of this tonearm that would take except to his conclusions?

Michael Fremer is someone who no-one in the audio should take serious. Michael Fremer is just comic relief.
You can't aligne it with a standard protractor because of the rotation of the cartridge thanks to both arms. You need the original alignment jig to get proper geometry

Fremer used to be a comedian, and once put out a comedy record. LOL!
I listen carefully to Michael. I find that most of the time I agree with what he says he hears.
I'm sure that what Michael Fremer heard was accurate, however as the tonearm was damaged so what he heard bears little relationship to a correctly functioning Thales tonearm/turntable.
