Teflon Silver Plated Wire Shell Lead YR-01

Shell Reed's YR-01 wire is made of extra-thick Teflon-coated silver-plated copper wire. This Teflon wire is a wire that we use for amplifiers, etc., and is manufactured according to MIL standards, and is a wire with excellent durability and the best electrical insulation. The thickness of the lead wire is 22 AWG (American Wire Gauge), and the cross-sectional area is 0.38 sked, and the DC resistance is minimized to the utmost limit. The terminals are machined phosphorus bronze YRT-01 equivalents. Sound quality can be improved with reliable contact and high-quality wire rods.
Since the lead wire is quite thick and hard, it is formed from the beginning and processed to make it easy to install, but the chip is thick because it is machined, so depending on the cartridge, the fit may not be good.
