Need recco for someone to solder tonearm cable clips


I managed to break one of the leads at the clip.  Can anyone recommend someone in the US that can solder tonearm cable clips?

anyone who re-wires tonearms can.

You have the part? Most decent electronics parts stores have technicians that could do it.

NOTE: the clips at each end of Ortofon jumper type are slightly different diameters

I'd do it for you if you were in the neighborhood! Lot's of experience soldering over the past 40 + years!

Thanks for the info, guys.  I'd emailed a couple of other potential service providers prior to posting.

 

A bit more info:  The tonearm is Michell TecnoArm, which came with a thin silver litz cable, apparently run straight through to the interconnect cable without a transition. .  One of the folks I emailed mentioned that silver wire is difficult to solder- any thoughts on this?

 

 

Very fine gauge pure silver wire is as easy to melt as it is to solder. That’s my thought on that. I’d like to know where are the electronic parts stores in the US that also have technicians that solder. Heck, I’ll settle for an electronics parts store, period.

Hi gthirteen. Maybe not the nearest to you, but recommended by many customers in US. There is a small company in UK (Scotland) which offers great re-wiring service, but also cleaning and other upgrade of modern tonearms. You can always consider: https://www.thevinylsource.co.uk/tonearms-service

I live in UK, so my postage to get this service is a bit lower. You decide. They can always answer your questions and advise, if you write using their contact form on website. My issue with tonearm wiring they solved with a great outcome.
