Note: This is the TK-14 with the side wall "skirt". This was the original design that preceded later TK-24 without the side wall "skirting". Both offer same fit and function and only a difference in personal visual aesthetic taste. The side wall skirt may obscure the rear view of your cartridge which could be favorable if you don't want to see the wiring.
This listing also is for silver wire leads to the cartridge, see sellers other listings for pure oxygen free copper lead wire.
Fixes many common problems dropped channel and degraded sound quality that may occur with older sleds. These come equipped with 30AWG 5N pure silver litz wire for superior conductivity of the audio signal.
This aftermarket TK-14 will fit the following Dual models (does not fit older Dual 10xx models):
461, 481, 491, 502, 504, 510, 521, 601, 604, 621, 701, 704, 721, 731, 1209, 1210, 1211, 1212, 1214, 1215, 1215 S, 1216, 1218, 1219, 1220, 1222, 1224, 1225, 1226, 1228, 1229, 1229 Q, 1234, 1234 A, 1235, 1236, 1237, 1239, 1241, 1242, 1245, 1246 and 1249.
Pure Silver litz leadwire:
30AWG 5N Pure Silver litz wire is the best wire for faster transmission speeds, lossless data and cleaner sound. It's 0.55mm outer diameter, litz construction 7 strands and each strand is 0.1mm diameter 99.999+% Pure soft annealed silver wires in oversized PTFE Teflon insulation. Woven Teflon Litz construction is ideal to deliver RFI and EMI rejection and provides low capacitance. 99.999+% silver transmits electrical signals faster and with less distortion than ordinary OFC wires. High grade Teflon insulation gives a predominant air dielectric and is regarded as the best insulator for bare cable. Our silver is produced using the most up to date continuous casting methods in one of the largest and most stringently tested facilities in the world. Every lead wire is made of 2 strands of transparent 30AWG FURUKAWA 5N Pure Silver litz wires and litz construction for a superior sound.
Terminal: phosphor copper and 24K gold plated, for 1.2 mm standard cartridge pins.
Terminals are welded on leadwire by hand with lead-free environmental safe solder and equipment one by one to ensure high electrical conductivity, high reliability, durability and long life. Quality and performance are much better than the original Dual terminal wires/pins!
Heat shrink tube: ROHS environmental protection material. Red, white, blue, and green heat shrink tubes are used to distinguish ports.
Mount on cartridge according to the color of shrink tubing:
BLUE = LG (left ground)
GREEN = RG (right ground)
WHITE = L (left positive)
RED = R (right positive)
COMBINED SHIPPING: a $4 dollar refund will be issued to purchasers who order along with a lubricant kit or alignment guide (4 dollar total refund for entire purchase).
