I bought a set of Audio Technica LH headshells (I think they retail for $89). Available in several weights so I can usually get any cartridge to work reasonably well on the Bokrand.
I bought my Bokrand specifically for an Ortofon SPU. I'm using a Classic GE MKII that really sings with this arm, so I'm looking to try a Royal G if I can find a few grand somewhere...
I have everything ready but the AB-230!
Chose the 13 g A-Ts after reading Korf.
That’s the exact combination I will use. Got my Bokrand tonearm and waiting for the SPU. Need to add a SUT and was wondering which one are you using?
Very well indeed. I believe the Bokrand has a higher mass than the 3012/II that I used before. The bass is more extended and sounded more impactful. Distortion is lower, esp. at the end of side. Very happy with it.
I ordered a DaVa wired arm from Alfred last weekend
will try and compare with the Groovemaster
think the AB arm should fit in the VTA lift, so I just need to swing out the armboard a little to realign from 304,75 to 309mm pivot-spindle distance

I also went with wired version. Which pickup will grace your Bokrand?
it’s a DaVa wired arm for the DaVa cartridge which is a field coil cartridge
Thanks, wasn't aware of that particular cartridge.
it is a direct sale cartridge from the manufacturer in Lithuania, has a one year queue, plus he isn’t taking orders till May 2023 to clear the backlog. It is 3k for the basic and 6.5k euro for the reference plus 1500 for the tube PSU power supply.
some feedback here, thread started in 2020 and developed since
DaVa FC-A1 a field coil contender
Finally I got around to install my new darling, the Lithuanian fieldcoil cart that´s about to cause a HUGE STIR in the analogue world Based on the Neumann DST principle from 1962 and with fieldcoil magnet and a cactus cantilever tipped with a 0,5 conical gem, it´s in the exotic category I´s a...

After my Garrard 301 project, am kinda a burned out when it comes to one man shops but always intrigued to learn more about exotic gear. That looks very cool. Thanks for the info, I will definitely read the posted threads.
The Garrard 301 I bought from Audo Grail and was most pleasant experience. Matt is a fantastic guy. It's the maker of the plinth that has made my Garrard journey bittersweet
