Albert, great idea. I bet the wire inside my Tri Planar arm isn't broken in yet either. I'll give this a spin this week end.
Thanks

DIN to RCA adapter
I want to burn-in a phono cable by using it as a SE IC between my CDp and preamp.
The phono cable I want to burn-in terminates with a 5 pin female DIN at one end and a pair of male RCAs at the other. I have been told that I can build a home grown cheapo adapter using zip cord and a Radio Shack DIN.
So, I would need an inexpensive cable that terminates at one end in a pair of male RCAs. I can cut-off the other end (whatever it is) and solder on a male 5 pin DIN.
Does it matter which of the 5 pins on the DIN are soldered to which wire coming from the RCAs? Most "zip cord" has just two wires, so I would be soldering at two of the five pins.
Any help (or suggestions) would be appreciated.
