Thanks Stanwal. I've been down that path before many times just not with tonearm cables. My previous table had the cable as part of the arm so there was no changing it. Without getting into the "cables sound different vs cables sound the same" debate it seems to me the tonearm cable is one of the cables in the system that would potentially have the greatest effect on the sound. Speculation only. I don't have the system set up yet but my first thought was to try Kimber Hero with a separate ground wire since I have it available.
Tonearm cable for VPI Scout JMW9 arm
Looking for comments on a tonearm cable from my VPI Scout table with JMW9 arm to my Dynavector P75 MKII phono preamp. I'm between cartridges at the moment. I had been thinking about the VPI tonearm cable for a couple of hundred bucks since it's essentially the same wire as what's in the tonearm but open to other suggestions. Is a shielded cable crucial for this? Thanks for your comments.
