Tone arm plug in RCA cable?


I have a tone arm with a connector that plugs into the bottom of the arm to get the L/R channels from the stereo cart. 

There are currently going into a Sumiko Premire PIB 1 box on the side of the deck… The RCAs going to the phono stage are then combing off of that “break out” box.

So a handful of suggestions of phono lines to come off the table would be great to have.

Or do I just get some thin silver wire and twist up some, as they only need to be maybe 10” long (if even that long),

All the folk who recommend getting rid of the PIB are missing a trick.

Interconnects are far more commonly available to audition than DIN phono cables.

My recommendation is keep the PIB so that you can try different interconnects, and then when you have found the best interconnect, then you can order one with a DIN and remove the PIB.

In other words leaving the PIB enables you to try different interconnects more easily.
