Weakest Link + hardwired = ??


A search of "weakest link" here yielded less than awesome results, so here goes..

Q: My Pro-ject TT has RCA output cables that are hard wired inside the table. I just a bought a Phonomena pre (en route)... Will some half decent IC's make a difference going from Phonomena to my Amp considering the basic nature of the stock RCA's from the Pro-ject?

Logic would tell me I am only as good as my source cabling.

Your post suggests that Pro-ject don't use "half decent" cables to begin with. The cables hard wired in are quite probably very good if Pro-ject has used them, and done their testing and tuning with them.
It's true that the cables from a turntable carry a fairly low level 'fragile' signal, and good IC's will certainly help, but don't automatically reject the cables that came fitted to the TT.
