Hi, all good comments above.
On the right angle vs straight, sometimes this also depends on the cable, the Purist Audio Designs I use has a very flexible 6 inch lead allowing fairly unrestrictive movement and ability to bend. Others maybe more stiff dictating a right or straight for you. I used to have a SME IV.Vi than has a similar din arrangement as your Graham, I used both straight and right angles...
I think the next question is what are you wanting to accomplish? You can spend more on a arm cable than your arm if you want.
In my opinion, they are a critical element of your analog playback chain...and like most things, system matching is critical.
Good luck !
