Hi bear with me as I'm not really technically minded on things like this.
Hope the pictures work, thanks for looking.

I solderd the wires in order that the wires where on the cart/stylus.

Now I'm really stuck can any one help with fixing and soldering the wires correctly on a tone arm?
Iv replaced the arms and soldered them, I'm not even sure I got the wires solderd to the rite place as when I test them out they sound ok but not good,
This is what I soldered, where the two holes are this is the bottom of it which screws onto the tone arm

would this be due to the wires not being in the rite order?
I don't have a volt meter etc to test anything, does any one know which colour wires go where on the clips at the end of the tone arm for stantons, or are all turntables the same when it comes to putting the rite colour wire on the clips at the end of the tone arm.
This last picture is the end result of me thinking iv done it correctly.
