LP TUNES SOAR HD-5 HD 5 HD5 HEADSHELL WIRES SET
-- Serious improvement with these wires

The first thing that electrically connects to the cartridge are the headshell lead wires hence their critical importance in the audio chain. The LP Tunes SOAR HD5 headshell wires are designed to do nothing else but to faithfully transfer what comes out from the cartridge without coloration, signal loss or distortion. They sound organically natural and musical.

"Holy crap, these are the real deal! I am hearing some serious improvement with these wires... bass is extended and more detailed, transients are more dynamic, imaging has popped into more vivid 3D, recordings that previously sounded smeared now have nuance and depth, etc. etc. etc.

If your tonearm has a detachable headshell, do yourself a favor and spend $25 on a set of these wires. You can thank me later..." stated a customer in one of the forums.1

Quality Leads

I installed the new leads when I replaced a stylus on an AT 8008 on a Technics SL-Q2 I have been refurbishing. The sound is very clear, enjoyable. 4 stars instead of 5 because the USPS shipping took 20 calendar days.

Super high quality lead wires

Litz configuration, the best way to connect your cartridge to your Headshell. These leads are top notch!

SOAR HD-5 Earns Position in Tonearm Rewire

Due to change in MC (from Goldring Eroica LX to Denon DL-S1) mounted on MMF9.3 turntable, broken headshell pins warranted tonearm partial rewire. Using SOAR HD-5, I kept cartridge leads intact and carefully cut and spliced SOAR wires tp MMF9.3 tonearm. Soldering and shrink tubing the MMF9.3 30AWG wires to the SOAR has resulted in outstanding music reproduction through the Denon DL-S1. I plan on future SOAR HD-5 purchases to use on 2 other turntables and assortment of cartridges mounted on headshells. Very pleased!

Excellent, especially for the price

I used these as replacements for my 1981 Sony PS-X600 which was still running the originals. After switching cartridges the old set wasn't making clean contact so I purchased these.

They worked great, had to clamp them just a bit, but in less than 10 minutes I was back to listening.

Definitely recommend.

Worth It

Better tracking and a crisper high end.

Just what I needed

In five minutes I located and ordered the belt for a random old turntable I found at a garage sale. The part came quickly and fit perfectly!

The original belt had deteriorated into dust, I don’t know how I could have found the right one without being able to look it up by make & model. (there was nothing left to measure!). Thanks to LP Tunes I was able to get this $10 turntable working and sounding great!
