Welcome and nice first post, I own and have owned the Ortofon, Glanz, Ikeda and the Fr64 and 66. The ikeda is a fantastic arm I have had problems over the years with alignment firstly I have found differences between samples the latest 2019 samples are better in terms of this as they have changed the bend on the tonearm. The ikeda is a nice musical arm great weight and scale, the Glanz is fantastic superb build quality no issues with alignment is a tad more dynamic and has a great wide soundstage and air, maybe not as full in the upper midrange as the ikeda. The fr66 is a great arm superb and very engaging its a bit more dynamic and open than the ikeda the problem is sourcing a nice sample it has a glorious midrange for my money the glanz offers best value its current so you have no service issues its superbly made very open and dynamic with superb drive maybe a bit less fleshed out compared to the Ikeda and FR66S. I much prefer all three to the FR64S which is not as engaging in my opinion and would be more inclined to stick with the Ortofon should this be a option.
