These are fantastic. OCC copper so they are the purest copper available.

I wouldn't worry about the quality of the copper in that 10mm link as it will make no difference whatsoever to the sound. In any case, the input impedance of the phono preamp that the cartridge feeds into will be thousands of ohms, typically 47,000 ohms in fact. So, even if the resistance of that link was one or two ohms (it will actually be a very small fraction of an ohm) it's like dropping a grain of sand on to a desert. The difference is non existent. Otherwise, signals passing through amplifiers, tuners, CD players etc travel through hundreds of components that use bog standard copper for their terminations.

They were bought to replace the old ones as the tags had seen better days.

I realise that, I'm just commenting on the details of interchanges that followed.
