Cheap phono cable vs decent interconnect cable?


Which would you go for?
Cheap phono cable (below $70 for 1 meter) vs a decent RCA interconnect cable ($200~300 for 1 meter)?

For me, the worst RCA cable for phono connection was Nordost Blue Heaven interconnect cable. I think the reason was that Blue Heaven does not have enough shielding.

Any input/idea?

You can always make your own cables.I got some 99.99% pure solid-core silver cable off the roll that was cryogenically treated at about $30/metre.You only need 1 metre.Some cotton sleeving,also the the wire was coated for protection,some decent quality RCA connector plugs and voila you have a phono cable that they sell for $2000 from Switzerland using the same wire.
