Hello everyone, I have an RCA phono to 4 pin DIN cable.

The DIN end has a locking screw thread. I think this is a locking DIN
connector??

Or could be a Touchel. Once common on some mics - but not 4 pin.

Does anybody know what this is used for?
I have no encountered 4 pin DIN before.

'Twas used by Quad for power amp connection. But in that application an
adaptor for other makers would need two phonos.


Thanks for replying Dave, I have posted a picture of the leads he

Looks like a Tuchel to me, rather than a DIN, but I too can't recall ever
having seen a 4 pin one.
How did you come by it?

I picked up a few leads at a local auction. There was also some Naim
equipment that I didn't manage to purchase. I was thinking it was for Naim
or perhaps Linn gear. The cable is Neglex 2534 microphone cable made by
Mogami.

What is Tuchel?
