Tone arm plug in RCA cable?

Pindac, You wrote, "If the OP wants to replace the Cable used for the PIB - 1, the method when used will add one more set of connections and disruption in the signal path."  I beg to differ.  He is already using the box, so changing the wires between the DIN plug and the box will not add physical connectors in the signal path. That will not change.  However, by eliminating the box interface, then he can reduce the existing number of physical connections in the signal path.

I gather you have strong opinions on what kind of wire sounds best.  So do many of us, but I think getting rid of the box is the main thing,

@holmz  : " I have a tone arm with a connector that plugs into the bottom of the arm.."

Which tonearm and which kind of connector it has? for what you posted  the tonearm output connector is a DIN Pin5.

@imhififan ​​​​​@yogiboy  already gave the solution.

" Is there any meaningful sonic advantage in going direct from DIN to phono stage? "

Absolutely, you need to go directly to the phono stage with nothing in between the DIN PIN 5 output connector and the input at PS other that the IC cable that those two gentlemans already posted and gave you the link ! ? ? !!

@lewm makes no sense to follow stupid posts but is up to you.

@holmz : Please follow the @lewm and other gentleman advise. You don’t need the PIB..

I think not, what you need is to follow trusty audiophiles that give you " solutions on hand " and stop to follow stupid posts.

I can only work with what I have, so if it looks stupid I can only offer and apology as that is as good as it gets. But as I asking,  it appears that I am open to receiving trustworthy advice.

The PIB is as @imhififan posted.

I’ll try an older DIN to RCA I have laying around, and see how it sounds, and then go from there.

Is there any meaningful sonic advantage in going direct from DIN to phono stage?
(I think in the past it was mostly a PITA to get the cable into the phonostage without jostling the TT.)

Theoretically, less break in the signal chain is better and I understand why SOTA turntable user preferred a interface box.

I’ll try an older DIN to RCA I have laying around, and see how it sounds, and then go from there.

IMO, a cable clamp can serve the same purpose as a PIB if using DIN to RCA cable.
