The Furutech AG-12 is available with a 90 degree DIN connector for similar situations to yours. https://www.analogueseduction.net/tonearm-cables/furutech-ag-12-tonearm-cable.html

Oldie but such a goodie. Stanton 680EE cartridge w/ NOS D680 stylus mounted on AudioQuest arm.

I agree with the other owners. I’ve had the 550S MII and currently have a 750D and AQ-PT. I really don’t think there is very much performance difference between the arms. You have a nice setup with the 550 and would stick with it.

Recently acquired Audio Technica AT7V cartridge / stylus mounted on a Yamamoto HS-2 head-shell on a Jelco SA-750 arm.

Has anyone had experience with this AT7V stylus from LPTunes? Are all the MR 5.0 model cartridge bodies the same? https://lptunes.com/products/stylus-for-signet-mr-5-0ml-cartridge

Thank you Manfred.

Thanks Manfred. Will use with a Kenwood KD-500 direct drive table with Jelco SA-750 medium mass tonearm. Sim Audio Moon LP110 phono pre.

Came with broken MRb stylus. Which Audio Technica family styli will fit this body?

Thanks Jay. Ditto.

Another option is to try the Jelco arm on your KD-650. You will probably need a new armboard. Jelco uses a 30mm mounting hole.

I've not owned a 650 so can't speak to the arm. I can tell you I've been very satisfied with the Jelco SA-750D. Jelco also made a number of quality private label OEM arms for AudioQuest, Sumiko, AR, etc.

Welcome to AK. Nice find on the Jelco arm. I believe the SA-750ED model is a 10” arm. I’ve found the Kenwood / Jelco combo to be a good match. I’m currently running a Jelco SA-750D 9” arm with the aftermarket mounting collar from Ammonite Audio on my KD-500.

I would save the platter / mat and motor for sure.

@cnolanh recently sold me a vintage Audio Technica ATLS500 cart with two OEM styli. Clean as described and prompt shipping. Thank you Nolan.

I sent a message to the seller yesterday morning requesting pictures of the arm. Couple hours later I looked to see if the seller posted any additional pictures and all the arms were gone. Checked just now and what looks like some of the same arms are back up for sale under another seller name...
