RE: Talked with Kevin at KAB today

Hi John

The tonearm wire Technics uses is standard multi-strand. Although the wire was upgraded to OFC in the Mk5G tonearm, compared to the litz wire Kevin uses in the Ultraflex or the Teflon coated Cardas litz, the Technics wire could be considered to be less than optimal.
The Ultraflex is by far the best (mechanically) even compared to the Teflon coated version he sold prior since (when the correct tension is achieved underneath the tonearm block) one can eliminate the wire bias that can occur due to the stiffness of the Teflon insulation.
