I have a scout. There is no need for a special phono cable. Just use a regular interconnect. My advice is: Don't, for a second, think of not upgrading your phono preamp just because you don't have an expensive cable to go along with it. Cables do make a nice difference if matched properly. A good phono preamp has the ability to transform the sound of your system in ways a pair of cables just can't. Even if you have to make due with a cheap pair of cables, for now, you will still hear a big improvement (As long as you pick the right phono preamp.)
