No Not at all, ic sockets are designed for flat tinned pins on ic´s not round pins on back of cartridge, machined ic sockets even worse as they´re designed to fold the pin during insertion. Try a decent vinyl shop, they usually carry hardware accesories, or send me a mail, if You don´t need hundreds of them, and i´ll post You a few. |

All my cartridges have a preference for the female gender, thank goodness. What's the point of inventing clumsy substitutes if you can get perfectly nice Cardas for peanuts? |

Because sometimes the music won't wait
and the DB connectors are in the basement/shack waiting to be cannabalized
and the cardas has to be ordered from somewhere and mailed
and you need a credit card so must be of a certain age.....
YMMV
:D |

Indeed, what else. Put a piece of heatshrink around them and they are perfect. |

I think I should inform you that the guy who was asking has already ordered from partsconnexion. That was his info to me. And - they even ship cod.
Any further fighting seems to be rather pointless. |

Oh, are we fighting?
I thought we were having an interesting discussion on
selecting materials to use in a particular application.
If my tone made it appear so then I must recant.
