No need to purchase a special IC for your TT. Just use a regular pair. I use AQ Cheetah's on mine.

Just use a regular pair. I agree. I have used special phono cables, and regular cables. I have not been able to tell a difference as far as noise goes. I realize that some folks may have noise issues where the grounded phono cables may help, and I do have a separate ground wire running from the back of my junction box to my phono preamp. So I have not noticed any noise issues using regular interconnects.
