Anyone using Graham IC-70 w/ SME V?

Just bought a Graham IC-70 phono cable w/ angled DIN here on Agon to be used with my SME V. I could not get it to work.

The connectors are directional, kind of like tubes, where there are several pins forming a circle, and one pin is "missing". So you need to rotate the heads until it just fits. When I tried this, the cable ended up pointing upwards (towards the bottom of the armboard), so it's not going to work.

Have others used this combo? Should I be looking for the non-angled-head version of this cable instead?

The graham din and the sme din are a different configurations. Has nothing to do with the "angled head"

Look at the din plug on your cable and the din inside your sme tonearm din. You'll see the pin config and the lil black plastic guide aren't in the right spots.

It can easily be adapted. I'd contact Graham. I had the same issue years ago when I bought a IC 50.
