Teflon silver plated line shell lead YR-01

The YR-01 shell lead uses ultra-thick Teflon-coated silver-plated copper wire. This Teflon wire is used in our amplifiers and is manufactured in accordance with MIL standards and has excellent durability and electrical insulation properties. The thickness of the lead wire is 22 AWG (American Wire Gauge), and the cross-sectional area is 0.38 scale to minimize DC resistance. The terminals are made of phosphor bronze, equivalent to YRT-01. Secure contact and high-quality wire materials improve sound quality.
The lead wires are thick and hard, so they are formed from the start for easy installation. On the other hand, the tips are machined so they are thick, so some cartridges may not feel quite right.
