No, the sensor socket is for other purposes ( I think for connecting link receivers from link rooms). The Beomaster 7000 that I have, also has 7 PIN plugs, but only 1 to 5 are used to make the crossover cable. Pins 6 & 7 don't change function and remain untouched.

I tried them and got an MMC2 back this week. For 159,- Euro (including postage from Germany to The Netherlands), they replaced the cantilever, the stylus and suspension, using a nude line diamond stylus with a sapphire cantilever. It really sounds like new again! I bought a Beogram 8002 of eBay last year in a beautiful condition, but it came with a
