Phono Cable Recommendations

Just curious what are you using for a phono cable and what was the price?

I have a DIY Helix cable (big thread on this cable on Cable forum) from the TT to Phono preamp. It sounds great but picking up RFI. Yes everything is grounded :) I have a Morrow Audio PH3 and tried it as it has shielding but doesn’t sound very good or near as well as the Helix. Was thinking of a Morrow PH6 ($599 retail) which is a step below the PH7 at $1K.  Have a VPI Classic 1 with a Dynavector 20x2L and a Manley Labs Chinook SE MKII preamp FYI.

@samzx12,

Good call, AE phono cable is super quiet, fast and offers superior shielding. I am currently using AE’s analog cables (IC, Speaker and Power Cables) in my system.

Please post your feedback once you had a chance to listen (allow atleast 25-30 hours for cable to settle in your system).

Enjoy!

@samzx12,

When they say cable is ‘fast’ it means you will hear well defined transients along with a sense of "immediacy" to the sound. AE cables are very transparent, no coloration whatsoever.
