Mission 774 on a Techy

[Ali Tait]

Found it, it's xaudiodesign for those interested.

Just had a look, don't think that shop is there anymore.

Nope still there - bought from them last week.
Search for xaudiodesign within eBay

See my previous post. :-)

Funny though, I searched Mission 774 and none of his stuff came up. Strange.

....... I've found that "dressing" the cable between the rear of the arm and the base plate is really important - if there is any stiffness or spring effect here it adds a biasing force.

Any tips on doing this Steve? Can see how too short/long can both be problematic.

I've found that 13cm from arm tube exit to furthest pin on the red connector block is ideal.

It helps to separate the 4 wires if they are braided between the red plug and the rear of the arm tube. The wires should run in a smooth arc above the bias weight arm. I tested the arrangement by disabling the bias mechanism (just slip the thread off the pulley) and playing a blank area of a vinyl test disc to ensure there was no latent bias force - moving the wires in different directions until it was totally passive. Trial and error.

Thanks Steve.....I know some folks choose to braid wires here.
Can see how that might contribute negatively in terms of unwanted lateral forces.

No worries - Dominic Harper at Northwest Analogue gave me this sage advice so it's not just my amateurish idea
