Internal Cable Upgrade

The Sony CDM14 CD transport transfers the digital information via a flat cable to the printed circuit board (PCB) so it is crucial that the cable is well-shielded and of high quality. The SPECTRA solid-core flat cable is made up of high-purity linear-crystal oxygen-free copper (LC-OFC) insulated in a Teflon™ (PTFE) jacket with built-in shielding foil. This cable can be purchased at www.spectra-strip.amphenol.com at ~US$20.00.
