Turn Table Cable Length


I'm thinking of moving my TT to a new location that would involve cabling of about 20'.  While I appreciate great audio, perfection isn't my hunt.  I know there may be some things I give up and I'm OK with that.  Please share your thoughts on this if you don't mind.

Cheers,

If you have a moving magnet cartridge this is a really bad idea as the added cable capacitance is going to really screw up the high frequencies.
You can get an inexpensive phono stage, very small and put it next to the table then as mentioned above run long interconnects from it to your amp. It is still not ideal but a bunch better then running long turntable cables.
