Turntable
In the event that a four conductor cable is not available, a pair of cables with at least two conductors each may be used as shown in the following diagram, with the DIN connector shown from the rear (solder) side:
Female DIN | Shield | Male XLR |
1
To Phono
Preamplifier
1
Ground Wire | Spade Lug |
In this situation extra care must be taken to provide a flexible section to avoid interference with the turntable’s suspension. If the cabling has three conductors (in addition to the shield), the third conductor should be connected to pin 1 of the XLR connectors and left unconnected at the tonearm end.
