Just an update.....
Our mutual friend Tim, @boxer12, asked me to help him out with a dedicated phono cable. Noteworthy Audio. That was several months ago and I’ve since decided to have my VPI arm wired for a direct connection from cart to phono stage. So, I won’t be reviewing that cable. However, I’ve in house, his other interconnects. One is a 12’ from phono to sub, the other is a 1M from sub to amp. The 12’ was just installed last week and Tim says at least 100 hours before serious listening. ( I’ve tried speaker level connections in the past and in my system, that didn’t work out.)
I can say even after 30 hours, these cables are drawing me into the music like never before. |

James,
I'm not a tech person, just a hands on guy I sure understand your concern as I had it as well. It sounds much better this way.
I encourage others to experiment. |
