    I fancy making my own cable so I'm after an SME right angled tonearm connector. Anyone got one?

    Thanks Dom but I have seen them a few places at that price. Seems very expensive for what it is. Just seeing if someone has one that they no longer need.

    I might have one in workshop some where.

    They are a right fiddly so in so to solder, the pins inside the plug are tiny!

    Sounds like you are enjoying the Delphi too

    Try the Clearaudio plugs. They are straight but is is very easy to put a 90 degree bend in as the cable exits the housing.
    The clearaudio are much better quality than the SME and are considerably cheaper. I use them to make my tonearm cables with absolutely no complaints.
    Hope that helps.

    The clearaudio has solder buckets rather the open ended pins and, unlike all other manufacturers, the solder buckets are cut on an angle and let the solder flow effortlessly.
