Slightly eg where two different versions of the CP Goldenscan HPE for  
instance, the ones made in Italy had heavier damping on the mirrors & so  
tended to miss there stop, the Pulsar assembled ones had the damping set  
more lightly so tended to wobble more. Mirrors tended to be 8bit as well, 

so there's an age issue. It's slightly horses for courses, mirrors don't  
wobble lx bars & no moving head comes close to a miniscan HPE for stings.
