Favorite cable brand.
Thanks to all who have replied. There are numerous brands mentioned that are new to me. 
Upgrade entry level or start over?
If memory serves, the Ortofon cartridge engine is the same as the higher end units, such as the om40. Maybe find a stylus for an om30 or om40 and swap it out? The super om30 was on a turntable here for many years only recently to be replaced.

The retail of the Pioneer SX-1980 was $1295. In 2021 dollars = $5,660.33. Not a horrible investment if one used it for that number of years.
