15 foot RCA cables out of TT with no pre amp?

Im very limited with the space I have. This is kinda limiting me to keep the turntable on a 15’ cable. I’m using a Pro-ject Carbon Debut Evo with an Ortofon  2m blue to an Onkyo stereo with a phono input. Cables are midrange, nothing special but not total crap. Just wanted to get some opinions or suggestions on this. How bad the loss is gonna be if there is any.

Hello,
Most brands of TT have less than 1 meter of cable coming from the cart. I would recommend Shiit Mani to start with. At $150 it is a really great product. From the Shiit Mani you can run the longer cable to an input on the Receiver. Do not use the “Phono” input if you are using a phono preamp like the Shiit Mani. You can use an empty RCA input like AUX, Tape, or VCR since these are usually open.
