REK-O-KUT®
TRANSCRIBE AUDIOPHILE TONEARM There are very few modern tonearms that actually have 16" transcription disc capacity. They cost many times the price of the TranScribe. This extra length also has advantages for the more common 12" LP records, in that there is less of a tracking error. The TranScribe accepts removable headshells to facilitate switching cartridges and styli.

Just to complicate things, there are two kinds of Empire cables: female and male. Even the connectors are obsolete. So, it is difficult to make one unless you can find this 25 cent part from 40 years ago. Occasionally, new cables made with custom made connectors or old stock parts are constructed and sold on EBAY. They are always over $100.00. Expect to pay a lot! ARM CABLE FOR REBUILD OR REPAIRING OTHER TURNTABLES

These lead clips are made to fit 0.05 inch
cartridge pins. They are gold-flashed for improved conductivity, and come in a more convenient
to grasp length of 0.577 inches.
For added durability, the clip ends have a metal wrap-around strain relief. These clips are made for crimping with
appropriate crimpers, but leads can easily be soldered onto the clips.
