| Why is the standard tonearm cable not good enough? Tim,I am a vinyl newbie, and I was under the impression that the RB1000 tone arm had no breaks in the cable. I might be wrong, you may be right, but I am not 100% sure either way.I was assuming (there I go doing the ASS U ME thing) that since the ... | |

This is a good question.Personally, I like my Rega RB1000 tonearm because it has very high quality IC from the cartridge to the male RCA plugs with NO break in the cable. True it does not allow me to easily upgrade the cable (although it can be do... | |
