Stupid Jelco Question

[cuddles]

I'm thinking about forking out for a Jelco 750 to be one step closer to pimping my Technics. My stupid question is - does the itself arm come with cable/wire? By which I mean from the headshell tags through the arm itself? Would it then be terminated with a DIN socket or RCA plugs?

When I check photos of the arms on the net there's a complete absence of any wire/cable. :scratch:

I believe it has a din connector on the arm and you need to get an arm cable to go to the amp.

Have a word wih Dave at MCRU to confirm. His prices seem to be cheap on the 750 at the mo.

The Jelco does not come with a leadout cable.
I'm waiting for one to turn up from here http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/back25beat10/m.html?item=221168061849&pt=UK_Computing_Sound_Vision_Audio_Cables_Adapters&hash=item337ea4cd99&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562
The arm itself is wired.

Cheers - thanks for the replies. I've noticed MCRU have them on sale at the mo so I might try and sneak one past my missus ;);)

As far as the DIN connector is concerned what are the views on straight vs right angled? I'm just wondering about it fouling under the TT.

Good question - I went with the straight Furutech carbon DIN which comes down from under the Techie by about an inch then of course you have the cable coming down after that. It did hinder the on the fly vta adjust of my arm a couple of times but I did manage to set vta fine in the end. With hindsight I would have looked into the right angled version more to see if it was less of a hinderence, which on paper it should ;)
