Pros & Cons
Pros
This is the same lead wire set that audio-technica includes with the superb at33ev mc phono cartridge. Use a radio shack narrow *-nose pliers for proper installation. Nice wires, but stiff, and can cramp your space if limited.
Very cheap tweak to bring more details and resolution to technics stock hs. No noise, buzz or hum from the new wires. Also system synergy comes into play. Arriv3d safely / promptly.
Highlights
Quality
These are a very good upgrade for the standard leads that come with the majority of the headshells sold.

I can only speak from my experience but both the headshell and the cart used with the wires are very common.
This is not something that keeps me from buying these; i just wanted to note this observation so people aren't caught off-guard... Read More
Packaging/appearance
Was replacing cartridge on 1960's teac turntable and one lead wire broke.
Your next best alternatives will be in the $40-80.
Competitiveness
These are a great improvement over factory headshell leads and are at a great price point
My application was a technics headshell from a early 1980’s sl d-202 and a atvm95e cart.
The cardas rhodium set comes to mind.
My new technics headshell (the sixth one) arrived with chincy lead wires.
