Classic 3 and Zephyr

My Zephyr is mounted a little more than halfway back in the JMW 10.5i slots, but I didn't think much about it. Great cartridge.

BRF..you needn't do that if the VPI jig was used. However....perhaps Nedmoto was sent the wrong jig for your arm. I suggest calling VPI for clarification.

You're doing something wrong. I own a Classic 1 w/ Classic 3 wand upgrade. I also use the SS Zephyr. I'm looking at my set up now as I write this post. The front face of the Zephyr is set back maybe a millimeter from the front end of the wand. Plenty of room for the wires. I used the VPI alignment jig, which btw is based on Baerwold geometry. Double check your work, but if you're still stumped, call Mike at VPI. FWIW, the Zephyr mates really well with the Classic wand. If set up properly, your rig should sing. Give my regards to Mike.

I have a Classic (model before the 1/2/3 came out) with a Zephyr and mine is also set back pretty far. During setup I actually pulled it out and started over just to be sure, and ended up in the same place.

(I use a Mint protractor for setup)

Thanks for your all your responses. I'd say I I'm about 85-90% back in the slots. I used the supplied jig with the Classic 3 and with my earlier post, once I took more care with the wire placement the second time around it doesn't don't look as tight. I'll post Mike's 2¢ after I talk to him.
