Polarity
If you are ordering this cable for use with DC powered equipment, please double check the polarity and order accordingly. If you are not sure then please contact us, make sure you have the make and model of your equipment to hand or can be close to the equipment as we'll need to ask you some questions.
Your chosen cable will be clearly marked with its polarity.
The table below shows the voltage and DC link cable requirements for equipment we have tested, but contact us if you have a component that isn’t listed. Don’t guess!
Compatibility
The table below shows the size and polarity of the power INPUT socket on the components we know of. If you're ordering the link cable to use with a third party power supply, then you will need to find out the size and polarity of the power OUTPUT socket. Don’t guess!

Yes, I recommend this product.
"More Improved Sound"
Having spoken to John at RA, I had two leads of this spec especially made to connect my Pro-Ject DS2 analogue preamp and DAC to their respective external power supplies (in addition, I had a 1.3mm jacks for the transport to power supply).Firstly, the build quality is superior to the best Pro-Ject supplied.
Secondly, the improvement in the sound quality is impressive. It has taken nearly two weeks for them to initially burn in, but now there is no comparison. I can't describe it easily except to say my classical CDs are just more impressive than ever.
I'm now thinking of getting the links from my mono power amps to their supplies upgraded, something I'll be discussing with RA shortly.
Perhaps, these are not the first upgrades to consider, but thoroughly recommended when appropriate, particularly as the cost was extremely reasonable
