I don't see anything in the spec equivalent to this:
Again, I seem to recall reading that while everyone calls it a "DIN" plug, it was never actually a DIN spec. Though I can't recall where I saw that mentioned.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

of course there is a DIN that specifies those round multi-pin connectors, mostly referenced as 'DIN plugs'.
DIN specifies standards and rules of technique for Germany. These things do not need to be german inventions.
Looks like an adaptor with standard five pole jack pinout, but missing shield clamp on one side. What about the other side?
I don't think you would find a DIN describing this adaptor as a whole.

Nothing's on the other side. And it's not an adapter. It's the same basic connector as these:

This is the Analogue forum isn't it?

Sorry for the misdirection, I thought you were talking about DIN connectors not Japanese tonearm connectors . The picture makes it clear that it is the latter.
I remember Jonathan Carr saying that it did not actually conform to any published standard but was a de facto standard adopted by the Japanese tonearm makers. Perhaps you could ask Jonathan directly

Oh, here's Jonathan's post if anyone's interested.
What is the 5 pin DIN connector on the tonearm?

DIN = "Deutsches Institut für Normung" - teh German Stardaization Institute -also known as a german set of standards for a vast number of things - comparable to BS- British Standards... US equvalent organisation name??
The DIN 45500 was/is a set of spec's to be fulfilled for audio eqp. to be met in order to use the term HiFi........
There's also another version often known as " Mini DIN" - to some maybe more commonly known as PS-2...........
Here's a link to a spec of the most common so-called DIN connectors:

I don't want to pay $10+ for a replacement tonearm connector so this is what I use

The contacts are silver plated and the tags are easy to solder, but the down part is the workup step. You have to remove the nickel casing with pliers or a dremel tool.

Hi, the tonearm connection isn't a DIN standard, although even Cardas like to call it that.
Here's the spec:
in imperial measurements of course...
and the pinouts:

Not really, the pin PCD, diameter and length are different, which is why you more or less have to buy one from Cardas at a very inflated price compared to, say, a high-quality DIN from Neutrik.
DIN on the left, five-pin tonearm connection on the right.
