Interconnect from VPI Scout to Clearaudio basic

I have recently purchased a VPI scout. Before I had a Rega P25 and never had to worry about a interconnect. So as a result I didn't and now I need one. The cartridge I use is a Lyra Dorian. From the basic it goes to a Rotel RC980Bx and then a Rotel RB1070. Next comes my Impulse Aria SE speakers. Just for reference my CD transport is a CEC TL51x and a Wadia 12 DAC.

I live in the Netherlands so please don´t advice some small brand that is not readily available.

I was think along the lines of Cardas Qualink-five C or Cross, maybe a Kimber Hero, KCAG etc.

I talked with some poeple here (the Netherlands) and most of them advise John van Gent phono cable.

A belgian man compared the John van Gent cable with kimber KS1130, KS1111, KS1021. He found that the John van Gent was at least as good as the KS1021 an d KS1111 for 1/3 of the price. Since I cannot review all cables myself I will take the chanse and order it.

You will then need to buy from one of the mail order places in the US...Music Direct, Elusive Disc or Acoustic Sounds. Also, I believe VPI sells direct.

As far as I know the Dutch importer doesn't sell/distributes the VPI Interlink. At least I cannot find anything about it on their site.

You might want to give the VPI interconnect a listen. It's not in the stratosphere, price wise, but it is a good sounding cable.
