Tone arm cable for SME V


I'm looking to replace the existing VDH cable that came with my SME V. I require a right-angle DIN to RCA cable. I know Cardas and Audioquest make them. Are there others out there worth looking at given my cable configuration requirement?

All available with right-angle DIN
The manufacturers mentioned by rgurney, and almost all others have or can make their cables with rt. angle DIN connectors. I have a SME V and have used both straight and rt. angle DIN connectors with it.

The DIN on the SME tonearm itself is already a swiveling rt. angle fitting, so a rt. angle DIN is really not that important, unless there is very restricted room under your armboard due to the particular construction of your turntable and a rt. angle DIN would help route the wire out the rear.

Either way, always make a one-turn spiral loop in the tonearm cable right after the DIN connector and before the cable exits the back of the TT, to help de-couple the TT from any vibrations that may arrive via the tonearm cable!

The two favorite cables for the SME V seem to be the Hovland Music Groove 2, and the Cardas Golden Reference (not the Neutral Reference). They are both around $600 +/-. If however, you want the absolute best IMO (retails for 3x the price of course! :~) go for the Purist Audio Design Venustas.
I highly recommend the Audioquest Leopard. DBS, pure silver in teflon. The DBS really makes breakin a non issue and is is especially difficult with a phono cable. The sound... absolutely coherent with depth and a great sense of space. Also, toneally very even. The silver has great texture without any sense of brightness
Check out Harmonic Technologies single crystal cable for phono. I use a pair and I couldn't be happier. Plus they don't cost an arm and a leg.
