    I have used both the Mission 774 and RB 300 arms.

    Still have the mission 774, Rega is long gone?

    The Rega wins for being a single piece design, if that really is of any importance?

    However set up wise the Mission is much more flexible.

    Far more adjustable, also has the benefit of being able to be damped or undamped.

    All IMHO of course.

    I know of one UK reviewer who still uses one in his reference system as he says it has the most accurate, widest and deepest sound stage he has ever heard.

    Hi

    I wasn't aware of any UK reviewers still using the Mission arm. I remember the arm from way back but have never tried one at home.

    The widest and deepest sounstage is unlikely to be the most accurate.
