Hi Andre,
That's identical to the Neglex cable others and I here use with our Jelco tonearms. It's absolutely superb, sonically - and well built, too.
Buy with confidence!
Marco.

Andr'e, can you solder? You could make up an equivalent sounding cable for well under £20 if you can..... Apologies, I hate these huge markups, online especially..

That looks identical to a cable Furukawa offered as a tonearm cable 20 odd years ago. The din plug looks identical, though the Rcas are not the same as the Furukawa ones.
It was a very good tone arm cable.
