Denon DP-2500A DIN to RCA

Hello All, I’ve been searching around scouring the internet for tonearm DIN connector to RCA. I’m not 100% sure if these are compatible. I found two cables and one converter. Do you have experience with these and/or used them with a similar type turntable to a Denon DP-2500a?

  • @mpitogo You did not mention what tonearm you are using.

    As long as your "tonearm" has a five pin DIN plug on the bottom you should be golden. And the cable you purchase is long enough to reach the back of your Mcintosh, or Phono Pre Amp - of course!

    @Manticore thank you. I took a chance and ordered the Pro-ject cable with a dL-110 and a few other accessories. It worked like a charm. Length is 1.23m, a bit longer than OE but fine and couldn’t be happier.

    From research it looks like there are at least two different kinds DIN to RCA tonearm cables. I used what looked to be the best match from images and looks like I have a winner.
