Ortofon LW-6N headshell lead wires

LW-6N is the 6N ultra-high purity copper wire lead wire.
The configuration is very sophisticated with different wire strand diameters, the inner strand is wound to the right, and the outer strand is wound to the left. The end of the wire is secured with a gold-plated terminal.
The tight winding against each other ensures clear transmission of music signals. Clear and crisp tonality.

Mounting instructions

All Ortofon cartridges have a color coding of the terminals, indicating red and green for the right channel or hot and ground terminal respectively. White and blue for the left channel or hot and ground terminal respectively. The green terminal is always used for grounding the cartridge housings or the motor system when the connection is made within the cartridge.

We recommend connecting the lead wires to the cartridge and the headshell before mounting the cartridge to the headshell. Please ensure the correct orientation of the leads. The diameter of the connection pins of Ortofon SH-4 headshells and Ortofon cartridges is 1.2 mm, while the pin diameter of the pins of Ortofon headshells is usually only 1.0 mm.

When using LW 6N with the SH-4 headshell, the side terminal of the LW 6N housing must be expanded slightly so that it fits the SH-4 pins. If shifted, the assembly may be tightened too much. Being aware of these details will avoid the risk of the cartridge's terminal pins falling out.
