@rauliruegas , you are right. This is a stupid thread.
Tone arm plug in RCA cable?
I have a tone arm with a connector that plugs into the bottom of the arm to get the L/R channels from the stereo cart.
There are currently going into a Sumiko Premire PIB 1 box on the side of the deck… The RCAs going to the phono stage are then combing off of that “break out” box.
So a handful of suggestions of phono lines to come off the table would be great to have.
Or do I just get some thin silver wire and twist up some, as they only need to be maybe 10” long (if even that long),

I cannot argue cogently that it is not a stupid thread.

@mijostyn, I have a similar problem as the OP. I have a older Sota tt with the PIB block and the DIN plug and wire looks a little long in the tooth, not to mention dated. I am using a older Purist Audio Aqueous Aerious phono cable, RCA to RCA connected to the PIB and phono pre. I don't believe this to be the best connection to my Sota tt. What would you recommend? |
Zavfino gets my vote also - here are their offerings https://zavfinousa.com/collections/tonearm-cables Regards - Steve |
Holm-zie baby, Your options have been stated over and over again. They range from (1) changing the wire between the DIN plug and the box, which was your original question to (2) changing the wires and then experimenting with different ICs to find out what ICs between box and phono stage sound best to you (Dover's idea). Then you could purchase a DIN to RCA IC to replace the box. To (3) ditch the box and just buy a good quality DIN to RCA IC to go from tonearm to phono stage. There are no other possible answers, no matter how many audiophile websites you may query. Choose one and good luck. Raul and Mijostyn do have a point; the thread got stupid when we started going round and round over the same limited number of choices. That is in part because you have acted like none of the responses are helpful, enough. If you want a different response, ask a different question. |
