I'm, frankly, getting a bit tired of beating this topic to death! I would recommend you actually go get one of these arms, mount it at 214mm, THEN get back to me...The arm was mounted at precisely 214mm - precisely.
The effective length of the arm with the cart mounted via Baerwald is 232mm. It would be impossible to move the cart back any further, 1mm much less 3mm. Look at the pictures on my post. There's not 5mm of slot remaining first of all and, more importantly, the headshell and cartridge leads are TOUCHING each other at 232mm. What do you propose, cutting the pins?
I've confirmed, re-confirmed, etc. the FACT that the effective length of this arm CAN NOT be 229mm. No way, no how.
