If it is an interconnect you are seeking, I can strongly suggest making your own with cardas parts. I deal with percy audio, who will understand what you are doing. Get a din plug, straight or right angle, 2 cardas rca jacks. the wire was one of the double wire cables, I believe it was 23x2. Please check this with percy, because if you get the wire too large, the individual runs will not fit in the tiny openings on the back of the din plug. That beldon stuff is ok for the price, but it is far frrom an "end all" cable, by a long shot. I believe john risch recommended an beldon double cable to me at one time for phono cable use, it too was a "double" cable, I think its number was 7770A or something like that. For what its worth, the cardas stuff work beautifully. I have made two myself and a few others for picky friends. It is a fine cable and a stupendous upgrade over what came with my turntable. A nice wiring diagram is available on the van denhul site for the din plug. Please stare at it for a while, it appears so simple, but I have yet to get it right the first time, and it is tiny tedious soldering work.
