I figured that's all it was. I'm more concerned if the pins will interface more than anything. No plans on buying that headshell either, it was simply just a good example photo for the captive pin. I assumed I would need an angled headshell in any case.
I figured that as long as the contacts interface I could nip off that captive pin and use it as the tonearm demands. I've been trying to do some sleuthing to figure out if it's a different standard or not though. The most I can find is an alternate 5 pin connector.; I think it's called a DIN connector?
I guess I'm getting to the point of trying to find an OEM part or buying a cheap headshell/cassette combo and trying to get it to interface. Worst case I have a spare for my everyday turntable.
